About this listen

 This episode discusses Michelle Sumrall's book, "Scattered," which details her experiences as a caregiver for her aging parents. The emotional rollercoaster of caregiving is explored, including depression, anger, denial, and anticipatory grief. Sumrall emphasizes the importance of a support network and having financial and long-term care plans in place. She also touches on the impact of geographical distance on family awareness of a loved one's decline and the challenges of navigating caregiving decisions. This discussion was informative and, at times, funny….in that kinda way where you laugh to keep from cryin’. Enjoy this listen!
