Living with Alzheimer's & Parenting and Alcoholism

Kathryn interviews Chicken Soup for the Soul Publisher and Editor-in-Chief Amy Newmark, author of "Chicken Soup for the Soul: Living with Alzheimer's & Other Dementias". Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia affect millions of people, and this book is especially for caregivers. This collection - a collaboration with the Alzheimer's Association - offers helpful advice, expert tips, and emotional support for families and caregivers of those living with Alzheimer's. Kathryn also interviews Jowita Bydlowska, author of "Drunk Mom". After the birth of her son, Bydlowska found herself celebrating with a glass of champagne. Just like that, her three years of sobriety were a distant memory and she began the rapid slide back to full-blown alcoholism. In Drunk Mom she shares her brutally honest story of her fight to stop drinking while facing the daunting reality of becoming a mom. Bydlowska has written for The Globe and Mail, Today's Parent, ELLE Canada, Salon, and The Huffington Post.
