Show Notes

In this episode of Lewy Body and Mindful Caregiving we are digging deep into the dementia 'yo-yo'. Sharing my personal journey, I highlight the ups and downs of caring for a loved one with dementia, and shine a light on the importance of self-care amidst managing demanding responsibilities and the substantial role medications play in the lives of those battling dementia. Tune in to hear compelling insight and advice on navigating through these challenging times with grace and understanding.
