GUT PUNCHED: ALZHEIMER’S & CAREGIVERS

Gut Punched: Alzheimer’s and Caregivers EP 22

This week on GutPunched: Alzheimer’s & Caregivers. Your host, Jeff Edwards will dive into a crucial topic from an article titled “Helping Family and Friends Understand Alzheimer’s Disease,” with a particular focus on helping children understand the impacts of this illness. We’ll explore strategies and insights provided by the National Institute on Aging to support young ones in comprehending what a loved one with Alzheimer’s is experiencing.

This discussion will seamlessly lead us into our special interview with Sandra Kiser, an esteemed Alzheimer’s advocate who reached out to us after listening to our podcast. Sandra has a deeply personal connection to Alzheimer’s, having seen it affect her Aunt, Brother, and Mother. Her extensive experience and contributions to the field include three published books—one of which is a children’s book designed to help young minds grasp the complexities of Alzheimer’s. She also created a corresponding coloring book to engage children further.

Sandra’s work is a testament to the challenges faced by children trying to understand the changes in their parents or grandparents due to Alzheimer’s. We’ll delve into how her books can be a valuable resource for families navigating these tough conversations.

We’ll also provide details on the upcoming Alzheimer’s Walk, a key event in raising awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s research. Don’t miss it!

Join us for this enlightening episode as we discuss tools and strategies to support young people through the emotional and cognitive challenges posed by Alzheimer’s, and gain insights from Sandra Kiser’s remarkable journey and advocacy work.
