“You have dementia” are 3 words no one wants to hear. For the three-quarters of a million Canadians living with the disease and the 1.7 million projected to develop it, it’s a painful reality they all must face. But what happens after diagnosis — to patients, families and caregivers? Host Avis Favaro speaks with
• “Care-y godmother” Katrina Prescott, a caregiving coach who helps families get the help she didn’t while she was looking after her mother, who lived with dementia
• Retired family doctor David Hood, who cared for hundred of patients during his 4-decade career, as well as both of his parents after they were diagnosed
