In this episode, I share not only some important facts and statistics about Alzheimer’s Disease, but also the deeply personal story of my own journey with my mom. From the early signs to the long, sacred goodbye, this is a raw and vulnerable reflection on caregiving, grief, guilt, and the quiet heartbreak of being slowly forgotten by someone you love. If you’ve walked this path — or are walking it now — I hope this episode brings you comfort, validation, and a reminder that you are not alone.
Alzheimer’s currently affects more than 6.9 million Americans, and that number is expected to double by 2060. This disease is growing rapidly, impacting not just those diagnosed but entire families who become caregivers, decision-makers, and emotional anchors. Whether you need support, perspective, or simply a place to exhale, this episode was made for you.
