About this listen

 In this special episode of This Is Your Brain on Mom, Barry sits down with our mom — the woman who started it all. Before memory loss became part of her story, she was a devoted mother of three, a master of school field trips, and the queen of chopped liver Sundays. In her first-ever podcast appearance, Mom shares stories from her childhood in Montreal, the ups and downs of raising kids through the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, and how she’s seen the world change — from typewriters to FaceTime, and from “boys meet girls” to “love is love.” It’s funny, tender, and a little bit nostalgic — a rare chance to hear Mom’s voice and remember who she was before Alzheimer’s began to reshape her world. 🎧 Tune in for: Her dream of becoming a nurse What parenting was really like “back then” The lessons she hopes her grandkids will carry forward Laughter, surprises, and a few classic “Mom-isms” Because before we can understand memory loss, we have to remember the person behind the memories.
