Gut Punched: Alzheimer’s & Caregivers

Gut Punched: Alzheimer’s and Caregivers EP 113 - The Not So Sexy Podcast

An Alzheimer’s diagnosis can feel overwhelming for both the person receiving it and the family members who suddenly become caregivers. Questions begin immediately: What happens next? Where do we start? Who can help?

In Episode 113 of GutPunched: Alzheimer’s & Caregivers, host Jeff Edwards shares practical guidance from the Alzheimer’s Association on what families should expect after an Alzheimer’s diagnosis, as well as the important first steps that can help make the journey a little less confusing.

Then Jeff sits down with Matt Field, owner of three Right at Home home care agencies in the Chicago area. Matt shares his experience working with families facing Alzheimer’s and dementia, offering practical advice, encouragement, and insight into how caregivers can better navigate the challenges ahead.

Also in this episode, Dr. John Huffaker returns with another edition of “What’s New with Alzheimer’s,” answering a listener’s question:
“Why do Alzheimer’s symptoms vary so much from one person to another?”

Plus, we’ll remind you about the upcoming 2026 Walk to End Alzheimer’s and why now is the perfect time to get involved.

Real Talk. Real Help. Real Hope.

Because no caregiver should have to make this journey alone.
