In today’s episode, I’m opening up about one of the hardest parts of caregiving—watching a parent decline.
 No one prepares you for the slow heartbreak of losing pieces of someone you love while they’re still physically here.I’ll share:

• Why anticipatory grief is real (and why you’re not "doing it wrong" if you feel it)
• How I’m coping with the emotional weight of caregiving
• The simple ways I stay connected to my parent, even as things change
• How I find small moments of joy and love, even through the pain
