This week, we welcome Marilyn! Marilyn is the author of the inspiring book “Don’t Walk Away: A Care Person’s Journey”. This week, we discuss her childhood, how her family has always dealt with death, her mother’s diagnosis of Alzheimer’s, her role as her mother’s caretaker, and the absolute joy Marilyn experienced spending every day of her mother’s journey with her. Marilyn has the goal of changing the view of dementia — please join us!
