We live in an anxious world, for any age. A discussion about how to live with anxiety, tempered with forgiveness. 

We’re all in this journey together. Dr. Edwards explores a dementia diagnosis from the perspectives of a patient and a caregiver, the tension between safety and dignity, and strategies to achieve both.

As we age, our faces change. Our hair color changes. Why wouldn’t our brains change? Dr. Edwards explains the way our brains age, and how to know what’s normal and what could be a sign of disease.
