The Heartache and Humor of Caring for Aging Parents

Today we're talking about something that millions of families experience, but very few of us are really prepared for: the moment when the people who raised us begin to need us to care for them. My guest is Emmy-nominated filmmaker Michelle Boyaner, whose documentary It's Not a Burden: The Humor and Heartache of Raising Elderly Parents, named Documentary of The Month by The Today Show, takes a remarkably personal look at that role reversal—not only through Michelle's experience caring for her own parents, but through the experiences of families from many different backgrounds. It's a story about caregiving, but it's also about guilt, humor, frustration, dignity, family relationships and, ultimately, love.https://www.seniorcareauthority.com/resources/boomers-today-podcast/
