Parenting Up family, we are excited to bring you a new 3-part series in partnership with Wayne State University's AGReed grant!
In this episode, Detroit caregivers speak with J Smiles about their experiences as caregivers for their loved ones with dementia. They discuss the physical demands, logistics, and emotional stress while also offering self-care strategies to prevent burnout.
As always, caregivers also spoke about funny moments with their loved ones that provide levity during the tough times of dealing with this horrible disease.
