Us At Our Worst
A Caregiver’s Unvarnished Account of Cancer & Dementia Care During the Peak of the Covid Pandemic
Episodes
So...how much does poop management amplify the challenge level of things for you as a caregiver? Turns out, quite a lot, if you mix in taking care of someone who is hostile, angry and out of their mind from dementia (and possibly brain cancer). You don't want to miss this one....THIS IS A CRAPPY EPISODE.

In episode 23 we get into the real beginning of the end type material. Oxygen condensers. Oxygen hunger. "Comfort Kits". Putting the FUN in "FUNeral" arrangements. And mom washes down chocolate chips with chocolate milk and Chuckles candy.

Episode 22 is a doozy. You get to hear my mom's voice. Plus a lot of big questions, challenging moments: Who should get the inheritance? How and why do caregivers lose their bearings? What makes a sane person start resting their head on random hallway walls? How long do you wait to reconnect with a sibling who didn't help? What happens when both parents are no longer thinking clearly?

Not your run of the mill normal episode about death, dying and dementia, oh heck no. This one? This one is about the infamous 'SHOWDOWN AT PHILPOT LAKE". A day that lives in my memory fiery and bright. How good is this episode? Hint: no one can hear you scream underwater.

Episode 12 of: "US AT OUR WORST: A Caregiver’s Unvarnished Account of Cancer & Dementia Care" is called "Lost in Secondary Lymphedema Land" OOOF. This was a genuinely challenging episode to say out loud. Secondary Lymphedema still haunts my memory of mom. But have no fear, there is still plenty of plucky comic relief, and downright madness to lift your spirits!
