My parents’ mental and physical health spiraled undetected during the pandemic. It was dementia ... dammit! And the start of a heartbreaking and overwhelming journey for all of us. I learned a lot along the way, from how to cope to how to ask for help. This is how it all unfolded.

Dementia, Dammit! A Daughter's Story

Welcome to Dementia, Dammit™! I created these podcasts to share the ins, outs, ups and downs of how one daughter weathered her parents’ storm … so you can too. What I learned during their "storm" was that no one prepares you for what happens when your loved one (or in my case, both of them) suffer a steep decline in their health coupled with increased dementia — and what in the world you are supposed to do first, second, third...ninth, etc. This is probably because everyone's journey is unique, but I’ve found there are definitely commonalities that arise.Although I’m not an expert in dementia, healthcare or caregiving, I am an expert in my own life and circumstances. And I am sharing it all to help you navigate the journey of your loved ones with dementia...without losing yourself in the process.
