“None of the books I read conveyed the ugly truth about caregiving: that it can destroy you – even kill you – if you go about it wrong.” That's just a taste of the hard-hitting reality conveyed by author Martin (Marty) Schreiber in his memoir, "My Two Elaines." Elaine was Marty's highschool sweetheart and wife of 62 years when she died from Alzheimer's. As a former governor, Marty was prepared for the political responsibilities focused on leading the State of Wisconson. As a loving husband to a wife with Alzheimer's, he floundered. Marty talks bluntly about several aspects of caregiving: the benefits of being told the truth of a diagnosis the unique stress a husband faces when he is the caregiver how asking for help can challenge a man's masculinity how critical it is to enter your loved one's world when trying to communicate  the inevitable anger and frustration of trying to fix the unfixable the danger of trying to cope with alcohol -- what Marty calls, "the caregiver's poison." self-reflection, regrets, and the importance of sharing personal caregiving stories This is a love story. Sad. Strong. Encouraging.

We are kicking off April with what is top of mind for everyone – how AI (artificial intelligence) is affecting and changing aging and caregiving. We have two experts in this area: Lawrence Kosick, Co-Founder of Get Set Up and Dor Skuler, Founder and CEO of Intuition Robotics, makers of ElliQ. They talk about how they are using AI to help both older adults and caregivers make managing health easier and more personalized. In our Caregiver Wellness News, we focus on April as National Stress Awareness Month and Sherri shares the latest on the Tik Tok trend, “cortisol face” and what caregivers should know. Sherri also talks about a new way to measure cortisol and stress in the workplace using saliva being tested with Cleveland Clinic employees. And new insights from a recent report from United Church Homes and MIT AgeLab on how caregivers feel about AI and managing care for their older loved one. For our Well Home Design News, we put the spotlight on April's National Parkinson's Awareness Month and the research that is identifying “parkinson's clusters” – geographic areas with extremely high prevalence for Parkinsons's disease – Sherri talks about what you should know about environmental factors and other risks as well as the signs of Parkinson's – some of which may surprise you. Also, Sherri shares a new report from the National Alliance for Caregiving and the Michel J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research – the first-ever study of caregivers of those with Parkinson's disease. One solution for these Parkinson's caregivers and all caregivers is a training platform from Trualta that helps caregivers up-skilll and learn techniques that help them on their caregiving journey. They share results of more than 3 million minutes caregivers have spent on their platform and what they are saying.

Send Cathy a text:)Have you ever felt your body physically react to stress before your mind could even process what was happening? That moment when your skin flushes hot, your heart races, and your shoulders tighten into knots—all while your thoughts spin "like a blender on high"?When an unexpected hospital notification arrived detailing fifteen pre-transplant appointments for my husband Denis across multiple locations—followed by a massive binder of medical instructions—my body's stress response kicked into overdrive. Despite years of teaching stress management techniques, I found myself overwhelmed by the physical and emotional weight of what lay ahead. The striking contrast between my immediate planning mode and Denis's calm "one-step-at-a-time" approach highlighted something crucial about caregiving stress: we all process it differently. Neither approach is wrong, but understanding your personal stress response is the first step toward managing it effectively. When traditional techniques failed me—the walks, the breathing exercises, even meditation—I returned to what works best for me: journaling my fears and speaking honestly with my support network.This episode unpacks five evidence-based strategies for managing caregiver stress, from understanding the science behind your body's stress signals to finding your unique outlet for processing emotions. With research showing that nearly 60% of caregivers experience high levels of stress and burnout, recognizing when your body is sending warning signals becomes essential to your wellbeing. Whether you're facing a major medical event like we are or navigating the daily challenges of caregiving, these practical tools can help you transform overwhelming moments into manageable steps.Text me your thoughts or join my email community through the show notes.

I grew up listening to Walter Cronkite. He signed off each nightly newscast with “And that's the way it is.” As a kid, I was often alarmed by the news. But I reasoned that if Walter Cronkite respected me enough to tell me the truth, then I could handle it. Yes, my reasoning was flawed. Mr. Cronkite didn't know me.  In this episode, I share deeply personal stories from my childhood. That's when my first caregiving experience really began. Both of my parents had enough confidence in me to tell me the truth, even at five years old.  Still, decades later, Mr. Cronkite's respect and my parents' confidence helped me find the resilience I needed to care for my husband. He had Alzheimer's. Today's family dementia caregivers need someone who respects them enough to tell them the truth. Caregivers need the truth to make a plan -- for minimize the chances of falling, to recognize what might be a urinary tract infection (UTI), to serve food not likely to cause choking, to adjust the household budget to hire a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant), to ask the hard questions about the real costs of memory care facilities. Sometimes, we can plan only one step at a time. But one step IS progress.  I hope that in hearing my childhood story, other caregivers will be able to look into their pasts and recognize times when they found strength. Now is the time to draw on that strength. We need to survive.

This episode is a message for the caregiver to send to someone else, someone who doesn't know, or doesn't understand, the stress the caregiver is going through. I liken that stress to driving alone, in an old car, up a steep mountain on a narrow, twisting road with no place to pull off. There are no guardrails. The caregiver's spouse is at the top of that mountain, dying.   I created this episode especially for the caregiver whose spouse has Alzheimer's or other form of dementia. While statistics vary, approximately 40% of family dementia caregivers die first -- meaning, the caregiver dies before the person with dementia dies. Stress can be deadly.  If you are not a caregiver, but you love someone who is, you might think of the caregiver as a strong person, someone who can "handle it." Don't be fooled. Many caregivers are simply too proud to ask for help.  In this episode, I share some of the stressful situations I confronted in caring for my husband. He died of Alzheimer's. I also offer ways to help the caregiver you love.  I also invite listeners to contact me via email or voice mail (go to https://myspousehasdementia.com) and let me know what obstacles you face in trying to help the caregiver you love.

Are you tracking your stress levels as a dementia caregiver? Caring for a loved one with dementia is a noble and challenging journey. But did you know that understanding and monitoring your stress can make a significant difference? Let's explore how.   Stress is a natural response to life's challenges. For caregivers, it often feels overwhelming. Yet, not all stress is harmful. Identifying and managing it effectively is key.  Stress can motivate us to solve problems, but chronic stress can lead to burnout. For caregivers, stress often arises from uncertainty, changing routines, and increased responsibilities.   Remember, monitoring and managing stress is crucial for both you and your loved one. Take advantage of available resources, seek support, and prioritize your well-being.  Your journey as a caregiver is invaluable, and taking care of yourself ensures you can continue to provide the best care possible.   Join our community and access our resources to help you navigate the caregiving journey with less stress and more peace.

This special episode is a rebroadcast of the Fading Memories: Alzheimer's/Dementia Support podcast hosted by Jennifer Fink. I had a wonderful conversation with Jen Fink, the producer and host of Fading Memories podcast. It's a great show that listens, hears, and offers hope, advice, and wisdom from caregivers who have lived the experience and thrived. Think of her podcast as your caregiver best friend. Before meeting Jen, I did not know that there is a podcast like Fading Memories that helps caregivers across the globe in varying circumstances and cultures. I sure learned a lot about Alzheimer's and dementia by listening to her many episodes that she posted since 2020. There's a lot to learn from Jen. Most notable is the fact that she herself was a caregiver of her mom. In this episode, Jen and I talked about Using Mindfulness To Reduce Frustrations. If you're a caregiver or know of caregivers who are going through the same situation, this can help ease the many challenges that many of us face. Truth be told, I did not only have fun chatting with Jen.
