Hey #caregiving twitter- thanks for helping me through. Mom died back in April and I’ve been dragging my feet on getting this out. It’s the obituary I think she would’ve wanted. #AlzheimersAwarenessMonth #dementia google.com/amp/s/www.dign…

Great piece on the stakes for caregivers, by @wendybutton: "The care we provide our loved ones isn’t valued in this country even though we all need it at the beginning of our lives, many of us need it throughout, and most of us will need it again at the end. It’s a need that…

Unearthed audio of Steve Bannon from 2020: “What Trump is gonna do is declare victory. That doesn’t mean he’s the winner. He’s just gonna say he’s the winner… He’s just gonna say they stole it. Trump is gonna do some crazy shit”

Also thanks to @matt_perrin for appearing in my nursing home story bit.ly/4bQf9N9 His insights about the last months of his mom's life - in several nursing homes - make the costs of underfunded care very apparent. His story is moving, grateful he spoke to me

It was a pleasure meeting a caregiver hero in Pippa Kelly, and being her guest on Well I Know Now... We talk family caregiving and the caregiver documentary "Wine, Women, & Dementia" - UK online screening May 13 - 19! #caregiving #CaregiverSupport #alzheimers #dementia

On my Well I Know Now #podcast tomorrow I talk to the wonderful Kitty Norton about her award-winning documentary #WineWomenandDementia @WWDdocumentary & caring for her mum. Kitty aka @LicketyGlitz brings a breath of fresh Oregon air to the global dementia movement.

It’s like The Handmaid’s Tale


Hey thanks @ElizabethJSays!

One of my favorite Thursday things is this #caregiving #caregiver newsletter written with authenticity and heart by @matt_perrin . Three Thing Thursday *on caregiving ➡ 12.14.2023: mailchi.mp/threethingthur…



I started using @empathy when I lost Mom. Not sure what I expected but what I got was exactly what I needed. Comfort. And help getting stuff done. So I'm beyond thankful that @Rongura and team built what they built and do what they do everyday. And I'm psyched about this!

"This is a truly interconnected collaboration — applying similar philosophies to intertwined life experiences. By doing so, we're reshaping the landscape of workplace well-being to elevate the overall welfare of #caregivers and those in their care." -- @Shara_L_Cohen

When you're a caregiver, you really rely on other people to help you. That is the only way you can take care of yourself. Go to a doctor's appointment. Visit the dentist. Get a massage. Etc. It is demoralizing because you are trapped. You can't do normal things without help.


Still can't believe @HHCaregiver invited me but I had a blast talking #caregiving with her. Thanks Elizabeth! PS -- Have you seen her episode archive?! 172 episodes of goodness 🙌 happyhealthycaregiver.com/all-podcast-ep…

In this episode of the HHC podcast with @matt_perrin we discuss unearned #caregiver guilt, win/win perspectives, social connections that led to being in a documentary, and new career paths inspired by #caregiving. #NFCMonth #NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth bit.ly/3QOxguG

There are 1.4K comments on an article called "The Quiet Rage of Caregivers." So maybe we're not that fucking quiet after all.


I haven't. Have you? Interested in connecting with Ashley? Her work is fantastic!

Anyone ever hired a care manager for a parent or spouse, to help with #caregiving ? Doing story research.



Wow! Psyched to see a review like this from @FilmThreat for @LicketyGlitz and the team behind @WWDdocumentary #dementia #caregiving

"...heartwarming and tragic, funny yet terrifying." Ryan Devir is wiser for having seen Wine, Women, & Dementia. filmthreat.com/reviews/wine-w… #SupportIndieFilm #Documentary #WineWomenAndDementia

Caregivers should be at every table where health care decisions are being made. #Caregiving
