Today's episode features Lauren - who tells the story of her mother Pat's journey with Alzheimer's - PPA and lung cancer.
Lauren describes noticing her mother's speech becoming jumbled in August 2022, which led to a challenging path to diagnosis involving family dynamics between her, her two sisters, and their father. Lauren so astutely recounts how navigating the family dynamics helped her recognize their family patterns - and ultimately helped her realize her own strength in showing up for difficult situations.
This is such an incredibly raw, deep and meaningful conversation and we are so thankful to Lauren for opening up to us. We just know this conversation will help so many. Share it with someone you think needs to hear it.
