What Nobody Tells You About Caring For A Parent With Dementia with Professor June Andrews
from Do I Know You? Understanding Dementia · host Dr Joanna King & Dr Anna Colton
When a parent or loved one is diagnosed with dementia, most families are left asking the same questions: What happens now? How do we cope? And why does nobody talk about how emotionally difficult caring can be? In this episode, Anna and Jo are joined by dementia specialist Professor June Andrews for an honest and practical conversation about diagnosis, care planning, family dynamics and the realities of becoming a carer.Together they explore the hidden grief that often comes with dementia, the guilt and isolation many carers experience, and why looking after yourself is just as important as looking after the person you love. Full of warmth, wisdom and reassurance, this is an episode for anyone navigating dementia, caring responsibilities, or supporting a loved one through later life.Find Professor June Andrews: https://juneandrews.net/Please subscribe and follow us on Instagram: @doiknowyoupod
