In the streets and sidewalks of every American city, a slow motion disaster is unfolding, with ever increasing numbers of people suffering from serious mental illness and/or addiction. Why is this happening? What can we do to help our most vulnerable citizens? Here Dr.  H sits down with Dr. Dave Iverson, a Colorado psychiatrist, advocate, and policy expert who has devoted his entire career to caring for the most ill patients with the least resources.  We get to hear what it's like to work in the psychiatric trenches-- the deep sense of urgency and purpose, along with the constant losses and ever growing numbers of people to serve.  BFTA on IG @backfromtheabysspodcasthttps://www.instagram.com/backfromtheabysspodcast/BFTA/ Dr. Hhttps://www.craigheacockmd.com/podcast-page/

"One thing that has become increasingly evident to me is the unexpected outcome of providing exceptional care: the continuation of life. It makes me question whether it is always the right decision, but how can I possibly do otherwise?" These words were spoken by Dave Iverson, our guest this week, in his thought-provoking book Winter Stars. Within its pages, he delves deep into the circumstances that led him to realize when it was time to step away from being his mother's primary caregiver. He painfully recognized that his mother and her care had become the fulcrum on which his life teetered precariously. This soul-searching occurred twelve years after his Parkinson's disease diagnosis, a condition he had managed quite well. However, the prospect of countless more days dedicated to caregiving left him feeling despondent. Their life together was straightforward—two individuals dependent on Social Security and Medicare, residing under the same roof. The activities that used to rejuvenate Dave no longer held the same effect. The coping mechanisms he had relied on for years appeared insufficient to sustain his sense of self. Despite receiving every form of support available to a caregiver, he couldn't shake the feeling of being perpetually bound. Eventually, after exploring every facet of his role as a primary caregiver, Dave arrived at a profound realization. He understood that he needed to step out the front door and return not as a caregiver but as a son. He recognized that he could no longer undertake the impossible, albeit fulfilling, excruciating, and life-altering job. Learn more about Dave & get his book here! Now to pay some bills!

Dave Iverson was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2004. He is a founding member of The Michael J Fox Foundation (MJFF) Patient Council and was the first host of the MJFF Parkinson's Podcast. We caught up at a patient council meeting in New York City to chat about his new book “Winter Stars.”  Parkinson's runs deep in Dave's family, but this book is not strictly about Parkinson's. It's about family, life choices and a bone between a mother and son.  At the age of 59, having spent nearly forty years in public broadcasting, Dave paused his career. His 95-year old mother had a rough bout with pneumonia and couldn't care for herself anymore. So, he paused his career, moved in with her and became her caregiving.   That decision resulted in a decade of self-discovery, an odyssey that forced Dave to come face to face with his personal weaknesses and uncharacteristic anger, while strengthening the bond to his mother and learning to live with, learn from and love dementia.  Winter Stars by Dave Iverson is available wherever you buy your books.  EMAIL Larry and Rebecca: ParkinsonsPod@curiouscast.ca Have questions, comments, or a story idea?

This episode of the Island Treasures podcast for Caregivers draws from the full episode “Telling the Full Story of Caregiving” featuring retired broadcast journalist, and author of "Winter Stars, an elderly mother, an aging son, and life's final journey", Dave Iverson. We start with Rosalyn Carter's quote about caregivers and proceed to explore the aspects of caregiving that face us all as we lift the blinds to see what lies before us in caregiving. We start at the individual level and go to the broader level. This episode invites you to join in the conversation so together we can find ways to make resources available for all caregivers regardless of financial situation. You may wonder why there's a cheeseburger reference - for the answer listen to the full episode of the Island Treasures Podcast Season 3 Episode 13.

Caring for a sick or aging loved one can be an uncertain journey filled with every emotion—from love and devotion to anger and frustration.  Dave Iverson pulls back the curtain on the decade he spent caring for his elderly mother to offer a modern love story with insights and meaning for anyone who is a caregiver or anyone who has ever loved. Iverson is a writer, documentary film producer, director and retired broadcast journalist.  He was 59, he moved in with his 95-year-old mother who could no longer care for herself.  His new memoir, “Winter Stars: An Elderly Mother, an Aging Son and Life's Final Journey,” tells the story of the 10-year caregiving odyssey they shared until her passing at the age of 105.  Iverson has produced and reported more than 20 documentary specials for PBS, including the Frontline film, “My Father, My Brother and Me” which explored his family saga with Parkinson's disease.  He has served as a special correspondent to the PBS NewsHour and hosted local PBS and NPR programs for 35 years at Wisconsin Public Broadcasting and at KQED San Francisco.  Iverson is also a founding member of The Michael J. Fox Foundation's Patient Council.  He is the recipient of a national Emmy, four regional Emmys and numerous film festival citations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This Mini podcast episode touches on some of the key points raised in the full podcast episode for caregivers called "Telling the Full Story of Caregiving" (Season 3 Episode 13) including whether caregivers are called or guided or compelled to step into caregiving. We review the broad scope of caregiving on the macro and micro levels. I talk about Dave Iverson's book "Winter Stars: An elderly mother, an aging son, and life's final journey" as well as Dave Iverson's PBS Frontline Documentary called "My Father, My Brother and Me". There's a shout-out of appreciation to Denise Brown of the Caregiving Years Training Academy for introducing me to Dave Iverson.

Join us for a rather special edition of Living The Retirement Lifestyle Podcast where you will meet our guest Dave Iverson, a writer, documentary film producer/director and retired broadcast journalist who did something extraordinary... He decided to do something he'd never quite imagined at his time of life and moved in to take care of his 95-year-old Mum who had dementia and shares with us the moving story of their ten-year caregiving journey which he documented in his book Winter Stars. https://vimeo.com/709468777 By the end of this decade, 74 million Americans will be over the age of 65, including every member of the Baby Boom generation and as a nation they are not alone. The pandemic prompted more Americans just as it has us Brits to consider caring for their parents at home, but as Iverson learned, the gritty, life-changing reality caregiving delivers requires more than good intentions. He didn't know that his mom's dementia would pose more challenges than his Parkinson's. He didn't know he'd be capable of getting so angry. He didn't know that becoming a caregiver means experiencing love and loss, anger and insight—usually when exhausted and often on the same day. And he didn't know that moving in with his Mum would challenge and change him more than any other life experience. For the vast number of families who are confronting —or will soon confront—a caregiving journey, Winter Stars offers an intimate, unvarnished portrait of the challenges, choices, and life lessons that lie ahead. As you will hear during our chat we too are facing that same challenge with our Mum. And in all honesty getting hold of Dave's book (which we found quite by luck during our research into caregiving) put into perspective our next choices and literally saved us from the mental anguish of the decision we knew we need to make You can read more and help us reach more people who suffer the anguish of caregiving by visiting Dave on his website - Dave Iverson Author All royalties from the sale of Winter Stars go to support Parkinson's and eldercare organizations. Excerpt From Chapter 14 "It's Time" … In that gentle late-night light, my mom's features seemed to soften. As she lost weight, the flesh receded, and her wrinkles smoothed. Her face subtly reformed, taking on the more angular features of her youth, her jaw line firm and thrust forward, her nose more prominent. She was really quite beautiful.I didn't feel regret. I didn't feel relief. I just felt like I was where I wanted to be, accompanied, as ever, by Eileen and Sinai.Late one night, I peeked into my mom's bedroom before entering.  Eileen was sitting by her side with her back to me. I watched for a moment before I realized that Eileen was wearing her prayer shawl and holding her Muslim prayer beads. She was murmuring softly in Hindi. I backed away. The next morning, I told Eileen how touched I was by what I'd seen. She smiled widely and said, “Well, Sinai taught me the Lord's Prayer, so sometimes I say that, too.” We don't know about you but that was just beautiful

Dave Iverson was a 59-year-old KQED broadcast journalist and filmmaker when he decided to do something he'd never imagined. He moved back into his childhood home when his 95-year-old mom could no longer care for herself. Dave's new memoir Winter Stars: An Elderly Mother, An Aging Son and Life's Final Journey is the story of their 10-year caregiving journey, lasting until his mother's passing at the age of 105. It's a book Michael J. Fox calls “A gift—a modern classic of frontier literature documenting the uncertain journey into the country of caregiving.” In this special Commonwealth Club presentation, KQED's Scott Shafer will interview Dave about his new book and our growing eldercare crisis. Someone turns 65 every eight seconds in this country, and the pandemic's ongoing toll on nursing home residents has prompted more people to consider caring for an aging parent at home. Yet what lies ahead when someone makes that choice? Join Scott Shafer and Dave Iverson for an intimate, unvarnished conversation about the challenges, choices and unexpected rewards of caring for someone during life's final journey. Our moderator will be award-winning journalist Scott Shafer. Shafer is senior editor of the California Politics and Government Desk at KQED, where he leads the politics team's coverage of the state. He is also co-host of the weekly radio program and podcast series "Political Breakdown."

Journalist Dave Iverson says that there were a lot of things he didn't know when he made the decision to move in with his 95-year old mother Adelaide in 2004 to take care of her. “I didn't know that I would be tested in ways I'd never imagined,” he writes in his new memoir, “or rewarded in ways I'd never dreamed.” He also had no idea that Adelaide would live nearly 10 years more, before passing away at age 105. Iverson, a former host of KQED Forum, joins us to talk about the burdens and benefits of caring for a loved one, how America is failing its caregivers, and his new book "Winter Stars: An elderly mother, an aging son, and life's final journey".
