Today we are lucky to have Roger Renik who found caring for an aging parent had many additional emotional aspects and challenges. Balancing on a tight rope and juggling many roles like a stressful second shift job, being a husband and father to two, plus caring for a parent with dementia set life up to be unbalanced. In Roger’s case, the conclusion of the caring for his mom was just the beginning of another challenging chapter in his life.
