Podcasts for ALZ/Dementia Caregivers (includes ep about the MC journey)

Hi All,

I wanted to share some podcasts I've found helpful as I navigate my mom's dementia and caring for her.  I found them on Apple Podcasts, but they may be avail through other players like Stitcher, etc.

1.  Experiences in Caregiving; Stories and Support for Caregivers (Alz. Association of San Diego/Imperial Chapter) : Covers a wide range of topics related to the caregiving experience.  For those of us who recently moved a LO to MC or who are considering it, I highly recommend the 1/13/21 episode, "Moving Into a Memory Care Facility"

2.  Dementia Untangled (Banner Health)

3.  Caregiver Wellness Podcast For Alzheimer's and Other Dementias (Melissa Wilkinson)

Please add on other suggestions!  Thank you and Happy Listening!
