Kathryn has written 2 books for children to help explain the changes associated with dementia. She was led by her own experiences with her children and her mother who has dementia. Kim will ask Kathryn: 1. What drove you to create your debut book, Weeds in Nana’s Garden? 2. Why did you set this story in a garden? 3. You wrote, illustrated, and published this book under Flipturn Publishing but who else helped you to create it? 4. Tell me about the second book you illustrated and published, I Smile For Grandpa? 5. What makes these books the right choice for families looking for a book about Alzheimer’s or other dementia? 6. Why is it so important to talk to kids about dementia? __________________________________________________________________________________________ Visit these websites to find out more about the books and to order one. http://weedsinnanasgarden.com/ http://ismileforgrandpa.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contact Kim Hegwood- Elder Law Attorney Website: https://hegwoodgroup.com Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/HegwoodLaw LinkedIn- https://www.linkedin.com/company/hegwoodlaw/ YouTube- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-ZaoTAWChvaz-HEFQcdcbQ
