Our second guest is Loretta Woodward Veney, author of Being My Mom’s Mom. After learning that her mother Doris was the first female in her family to suffer from dementia, Loretta began documenting the details of doctor visits, and recording people, places and things as a substitute for lost memory. She chronicled family events through journals, photos and videos, to capture every moment.  Loretta is a motivational teacher and trainer, who has conducted workshops throughout the US and Europe.  She will give us a wealth of encouragement on the journey ahead.
