Planning Now for a Potential Future Battle with Dementia


Listen Later

What would you do if you knew your time as a healthy adult had an expiration date? Eva Lewis joins me to share how being a caregiver for her parents, who were diagnosed with dementia, influenced the way she took care of herself. As the daughter of two parents with dementia, Eva is at a higher risk for getting the degenerative disease in the next 30+ years. Not only has this risked changed the way she lives but it has forced her to think about what plans she must make now--in her 30s--to prepare for the day she may need a caregiver if she's diagnosed with dementia, too.

Eva is the co-host for the improv comedy show White Privilege, Black Power. You can find them on Instagram at @whiteprivilegeblackpower.
