Cover your healthcare needs and know what resources are available to pay for medical expenses? Manage if you are terminally ill or die and they have no information about your accounts, retirement plans, insurance, loans?

In this episode, we’re talking about how to deal with dementia in our families and in our lives. Dementia is an unfortunate topic that touches many of our lives. When a parent starts to show symptoms of memory loss or erratic behavior, you need to have plans in place, to be able to have difficult conversations, and to be able to take action without getting overwhelmed. However, with the right preparation, you can take a compassionate approach to your parents’ care without straining your relationship or becoming exhausted - and you can take actionable steps right now to know the red flags, warning signs, and even determine if something is a medical issue and not dementia at all. Today, I’m joined by Kay Bransford. She’s the author of the award-winning blog Dealing With Dementia and creator of the MemoryBanc system, which has been named as a must-have in AARP’s Brain Healthy Gift Guide. She has also appeared on The Dr. Oz Show to talk about her work. So, if you want to know what to look out for, as well as how to prepare for the worst, check out today’s episode of Profit Boss® Radio! Here’s what you’ll find out in this week’s episode of Profit Boss® Radio: How Kay discovered that she needed lots of information to implement her parents’ plans once they developed forms of dementia - and why it took over half a decade of erratic behavior before they were diagnosed. How children can deal with parents who reject assistance – and how to take action without embarrassing or belittling them. Why certain medicines can trigger dementia-like symptoms - and the red flags you should bring up with a doctor if you notice. What people with dementia really need, how to prepare to be a caregiver, and how to tell if you absolutely can’t – or shouldn’t – be a caregiver. Why it’s so hard to determine when someone has to leave their home and be in full-time care.   Show Notes To get access to the full show notes, including all the resources mentioned, visit HilaryHendershott.com/165.

Author and innovator Kay Bransford left her corporate career because she couldn't work full time, be a mom AND an effective medical advocate for her parents, who both had dementia and were in denial about their condition. In this episode, Kay shares her tough yet at times comical caregiving journey with mom and dad, and how it affected her relationship with her siblings and her kids. Caring for her parents not only changed Kay's perspective on life, it led to a new career: the organizational book she created to manage her parents' lives—and her own sanity—became the basis for MemoryBanc, an award-winning system Kay created to organize and protect documents, accounts, and assets.

MemoryBanc: Organizing Your Life with Kay Bransford " When my parents had trouble remembering how to manage the checkbook, or even where the checkbook was, I stepped in to assist them. They had Wills, a Trust and the Power of Attorney was done, but that doesn't really help you when you need to manage the day-to-day affairs. I also found several financial institutions that refused to acknowledge the Durable Power of Attorney because it was more than 2 and 5 years old. I needed to know their medical history so I could be their health care advocate; I had to manage their household and know what service plans they had in place–all the little things most of us keep in our heads.  I created an organization system that held all of this information and that I could share with my siblings, so they could easily step in and take over for me when I was out of town."  ~ Kay Bransford MemoryBanc® Monograph is designed to help adults record their life story and prompts the owner to record everything from the family tree to sibling(s), spouse(s), friends, schools, recipes, and firsts along with photo and memento pages resulting in a pictorial memoir of your life.

Tough Talk Christian Radio with Host Tony Gambone with special guest Kay Bransford & Dan Farnow: Kay Bransford - Chief Curator of MemoryBanc, Kay left a role as a senior executive in a Fortune 200 firm to help care for her ailing parents. In the process, she created a system that would help families organize important documents, accounts and assets as well as navigate some legal roadblocks that were unexpected and impacted her ability to help her parents. Now Kay is a modern-day Paul Revere warning families that divide and conquer in her book, MemoryBanc: Your Workbook to Organizing Life, about the importance of documenting online personal, financial, medical, and household details so the information can be easily found and shared with loved ones if and when it's needed. Today, MemoryBanc delivers an award-winning system to families around the globe to help organize and protect their information in both print and digital formats. Dan Farnow is an author who has written the book "The Quest For Marriage," which is an off-beat, unorthodox, and humorous guide for Christian men looking to get married and what the journey is like, with no subject off limits. I serve as a group leader at my church where I assist in healing ministry and teaching Bible Studies. He has had his book published for over a year. The reason for writing it is that I did not see a Christian relationship book about dating that was guy-friendly. Most books out there are about standards that should be kept, but not a whole lot about practical obstacles that will be faced.
