Dementia Caregiving: Showing Love when it's Most Difficult
Lori La Bey talks with Carolyn Birrell a daughter who relocated her aging mother to be near her and spent the next eight years caring for her while learning “all things dementia.” She began writing initially to help her make sense of her mother’s early stages of dementia and the terrifying behaviors that came with it. It didn’t take her long to realize she was writing the very book she’d been searching for – the one that not only tells one woman’s story of traveling down her mother’s path into dementia from its beginning to its inevitable end but also helps others who are struggling to keep pace with their own loved one and desperately needing help. The book is called “Walking with Fay” and can be found on Amazon
