Fading Memories: Alzheimer's/Dementia Caregiver Support

Bonus Ep: My Family History Film


Listen Later

Have you ever watched a family history TV program and thought 'I wish I could have something like that for my family'? You're in luck! With My Family History Film, now you have that option.

They are a company that creates personal, broadcast-quality documentaries about your family. These films are fully researched by professional genealogists and historians. They explore your family's ancestry and origins all over the world!

Caregiving for someone with Alzheimer's, I am painfully aware of our lost history. Because of this loss, being able to watch a high-quality film all about my family is a dream come true. The question for me is what part of the family lore do we start with?

Specifically, I'm interested in learning more about the "Rum Runner" from Moms side of the family. Especially interesting to me is whether or not the stories about diamonds in jars are actually true. Additionally, there are fairly recent stories about a 3 times great grandmother who may have been a native person.

Generally speaking, we all have much family lore to explore. What part of your family tree would you like them to start with?

Thank you to my sponsor Family History Films
