We can't keep doing this to the women in our lives

from Preparing For Tomorrow podcast · host Diane Stoddart

In the U.S., almost 13 million unpaid/family caregivers are caring for someone with dementia right now. Many are doihng this without help or support from other family members. Most family caregivers are women who live with the dementia patient. 1/4 have kids they are also providing for, placing them in the "sandwich generation". 30% of family caregivers are 65 and older, many with health concerns of their own. The Alzheimer's Association has a ton of info and helpful resources https://www.alz.org/ We need to prepare for if and when dementia moves and claims residency in our own homes. And we need to plan so that we don't force the women in our lives to give up everything to provide for us During this Mother's Day week, the best Mother's day gift for your wives, sisters, daughters, grandaughters is to have a plan so you know where you would want to be, who you would lke to have with you, and how you plan to pay for this enormous risk.
