Episode 74: Unmasking the Journey of Leah Stanley: A Caregivers Long Goodbye
Description
Today's interview focuses on a topic that's very personal to my family. Alzheimer's Disease.
My Mom has been suffering with Alzheimer's for the past three years. That's why I am so blessed to talk with caregiver and author Leah Stanley. Leah says she's an ordinary person who went through an extraordinary experience. She became a caregiver at 29 when her grandparents were diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and an unspecified dementia, respectively. Leah, shares her caregiving story in her book Goodnight, Sweet: A Caregiver’s Long Goodbye and she has been a featured speaker with medical professionals and family caregivers alike.
We come at this discussion from a faith based perspective and I get a chance to ask her a lot of questions about my Mom's illness. I hope this conversation helps you if you have family suffering - and I hope it brings you encouragement like it does me.
