What’s Trending with Cathy Fulton

Dr. Jacalyn Kerbeck & Cathy Fulton welcome guests who inspire us to look at the aging process in a new way. They invited me to be a guest on their program. We talked about a wide range of topics around dementia care and the tools to use to make it easier.

In this episode of What’s Trending, we discuss common dementia caregiving issues and ways to cope with them.

No two people with dementia will react the same way. Every caregiver’s style of care is different. The dementia caregiver tips we discuss should be tailored to your loved ones needs and personality.

Tracy Cram Perkins is a dementia caregiving survivor and blogger. For sixteen years she cared for four family members with dementia plus other health issues. Caring for her parents provided the nucleus of  Dementia Home Care: How to Prepare Before, During, and After. She experienced the depression, anxiety, and guilt which comes with dementia care and recognized each person’s journey with dementia follows a different path. Her book grew from the questions presented by family members and friends overwhelmed by caregiving challenges and the frustration of not being able to find caregivers hands-on answers in one book.

In that same vein, Tracy believes that the sound of our laughter and the memories we create with others are the most important things we leave behind. She believes laughter is an important part of the caregiving equation.
