Truth, Lies & Alzheimer’s – The Podcast is a collection of stories, caregiver tips, proven solutions for caregivers, and insights on how to navigate the heartbreaking challenges of having a loved one diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. Everyone has a story about Alzheimer’s. It’s time to start the conversation about Alzheimer’s and stop treating it like it’s only a “Family Business.”

Lisa Skinner conducts an interview with Mike Parker and his experience with six (5) of his family members who developed Alzheimer's disease and died. Mike and his wife Paula are the primary caregivers for her mother who is in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. The topics covered in the interview include tips for dealing with Alzheimer’s, the symptoms of Alzheimer’s, and whether Alzheimer’s is hereditary or not.


In this episode of Truth, Lies & Alzheimer’s – The Podcast, we contemplate bringing a loved one home for caregiving, placing a loved one in a memory care facility, and whether Alzheimer’s disease is hereditary. We also discuss tips and tricks to lower the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease through diet, exercise, lower stress, and other proven lifestyle changes. According to a recent report by Alzheimer’s Disease International, an estimated 50 million people are living with dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease.
