In this brief podcast excerpt, the speaker shares a personal story about her mother’s struggle with dementia, describing the emotional pain and caregiving burden that accompany cognitive decline.

Chapters

As some of you will know, my mother suffers from dementia and it's just so sad to see someone who used to be such a shining light really just be, start fading away. It's not only just for the family member, it's also very sad for them when they start realizing they can't do things and they're not their old self and forgetting basic things, et cetera. But also it's a huge burden for those around and the suffering as well. The good news is that it is reversible if caught on time, or there are steps that you can take to actually proactively prevent it.
