My Mother: The Person and the Patient

Episode 37: Coping with Alzheimer's: A Journey of Acceptance, Caregiving, and the Value of Belonging


Listen Later

This profound episode delves into the multifaceted journey of coping with Alzheimer's disease. Join me as I explore caregivers' challenges when seeking essential support for myself and my mother living with Alzheimer's.

But the narrative extends further. I'll also share the compelling story of my mother, Timiro Mohamed, as a young mother who grappled with not fitting in among other military wives while living at the military base where her husband was stationed. Timiro's experience uniquely highlights the universal yearning for belonging and how it intertwines with the demanding role of caregiving.

Discover the resilience of acceptance, the unwavering dedication of caregiving, and the enduring quest for belonging in this heartfelt and illuminating story.
