Travels With Dementia
by Holly Riggs
Recorded journal of daily visits with my parents who both have dementia. I call it “Travels” partially because of Steinbeck’s Travels With Charley and partly because I always seem to be in my car or or a parking lot when I record. I don’t want to lose the moments with my parents, and I want to share their legacy because they’re really pretty awesome people.
