Today I am joined by Mary Daniels. When Mary's  Husband was diagnosed with Alzheimers at the age of 58 she could no longer go visit him in his facility when Covid struck.

From that experience, she has been working to change the policy in her state of Florida and is helping others to do the same across the US.
