If you're a dementia caregiver who barely recognizes yourself anymore, I want you to hear this before anything else: you are not broken, and you have not become a different person. Years of pouring everything into someone else can quietly erase the parts of you that existed before caregiving ever started. This isn't a personality change. It's what sustained, nonstop caregiving does to a nervous system. There is an actual name for what's happening to you, and once you understand it, it becomes something you can work with instead of something to fear. In this episode I explain what's really going on in your brain after years of dementia caregiving, and I share four specific ways to start feeling like yourself again.

Lewy is here! In Chicago! We have photographic proof! John and Tim are joined by special guest Andrew Claussen from Backheeled. The duo pick Andrew's tactical brain as they talk about hopes — and fears — for the Fire's biggest signing in history ahead of his all-but-certain debut on Thursday, along with what made Spain so good at strangling France's potent attack in a World Cup semifinal.Oh — and a game on Thursday! Andrew gets John and Tim to join in a chorus of saying complimenting Vancouver — and Andrew, unbidden, sneaks in a complement to the Fire in doing so. They talk about why this feels like a must-win even though with both teams at or near the top of their conferences, it isn't.

In this episode, Gayatri explains how to think about dementia as a spectrum—including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and mixed presentations—while exploring the evolving biology of amyloid, tau, and neuroinflammation and why brain pathology does not always correlate with symptoms. She discusses her approach to detecting subtle cognitive decline in high-functioning individuals, the role of biomarkers and APOE4 testing in asymptomatic patients, the benefits and risks of anti-amyloid therapies such as lecanemab and donanemab, and strategies for minimizing treatment-related complications. Gayatri also examines why some patients may stabilize or even improve with individualized care, the overlap among different dementia syndromes, and the relationship between menopause, estrogen, and cognition—including her concept of menopause-related cognitive impairment. Finally, she discusses how advances in early detection, AI-assisted monitoring, targeted therapies, and precision medicine are reshaping the future of dementia care. We discuss: Gayatri's training and clinical focus, why dementia is a spectrum disease, and how personalized treatment is changing Alzheimer's care [3:45]; How Alzheimer's disease fits within the broader spectrum of dementia: diagnosis, biomarkers, and early pathophysiology [7:15]; The emerging role of neuroinflammation and viral infections in Alzheimer's disease [13:30]; Gayatri's comprehensive approach to evaluating cognitive decline in high-functioning patients [17:45]; Why forgetting names is usually normal and when word-finding problems become concerning [29:00]; Why women are at higher risk for Alzheimer's disease and how menopause influences cognition [33:45]; The promise and limitations of blood-based biomarkers for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease [40:15]; When preclinical Alzheimer's screening is appropriate and how to interpret positive biomarker results [45:00]; Case study: early Alzheimer's prevention in a highly-functional woman in her 50s with two copies of APOE4 [47:15]; Anti-amyloid therapies: balancing clinical benefit with ARIA risk using slow titration [51:45]; The aducanumab controversy, why it was discontinued, and why Gayatri would still choose it [1:00:00]; How anti-amyloid therapies cause ARIA, strategies for detecting and managing these complications, and how future therapies may improve safety and accessibility [1:03:30]; Two patient examples of exceptional responses to anti-amyloid therapy [1:12:30]; A multimodal approach to Alzheimer's treatment: combination therapy, MRI-guided TMS, GLP-1 receptor agonists, and more [1:15:00]; Vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and the overlap with Alzheimer's disease [1:21:00]; Lewy body dementia and Parkinson's disease: distinguishing two alpha-synuclein disorders [1:26:45]; Risk factors for Lewy body dementia and what remains unknown [1:36:15]; Treating menopause-related cognitive impairment: hormone therapy, brain rehabilitation, and balancing breast cancer risk [1:38:45]; How biomarkers changed Gayatri's perspective on the potential for Alzheimer's patients to improve [1:47:15]; The future of Alzheimer's care: AI, precision medicine, and personalized treatment [1:49:30]; and More.

Dementia caregiving asks you to carry things nobody prepares you for, and some of the hardest parts are never said out loud. This video isn't based on research. It's based on what I've learned from working with thousands of caregivers over the past 17 years as a geropsychologist. If caregiving still hurts even though you're doing everything right, if people question your decisions, if you can't stop replaying every hard moment in your head, I want you to hear this first: none of that means you're failing. In this episode I walk you through five truths about dementia caregiving I wish every caregiver knew, the ones that can make this whole journey feel a little more possible to live.

Grey Matters Health CEO Christopher Moreau joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the arrival of the company's first brain-dedicated PET scanning system for its flagship NovaScan Neuroimaging Clinics™ location, which is scheduled to open soon in Davie, Florida. Moreau said the clinic will be the first in the United States dedicated exclusively to brain PET imaging, helping address growing demand for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease through beta-amyloid imaging, while also supporting diagnosis of other neurodegenerative disorders. The facility will feature the U.S. FDA-cleared CareMiBrain™ PET system, an innovative scanner that produces high-quality brain images without requiring an integrated CT scanner. The design reduces patient radiation exposure by approximately 25% while offering a more comfortable chair-style scanning experience. In addition to Alzheimer's disease, the CareMiBrain system will support imaging for Parkinson's disease, frontotemporal dementia, Lewy body dementia, and selected neuro-oncology applications. Moreau noted that brain PET scans used to detect beta-amyloid plaques are covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and many private insurance plans for eligible patients aged 65 and older. Demand for these scans has also increased following the FDA approval of Leqembi and Kisunla, two monoclonal antibody treatments that slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Patients must receive a positive beta-amyloid brain scan—or an approved alternative diagnostic test—to qualify for these therapies, and ongoing imaging is required to monitor treatment response. Management believes the combination of expanded insurance coverage, new Alzheimer's therapies, and growing demand for early diagnosis creates a significant opportunity for NovaScan as it launches its specialized neuroimaging clinic network in the United States. #proactiveinvestors #greymettershealth #cse #grey #AlzheimersDisease #Neuroimaging #PETScan #HealthcareInnovation #BrainHealth #DementiaResearch #MedicalTechnology #NovaScan #HealthcareServices #MedicalTechnology #Parkinsons #HealthTech #DiagnosticImaging

If your loved one with dementia has asked you the same question five, ten, or forty times in the last hour, you know the kind of patience it takes to keep answering. And you probably know the guilt that follows when you finally run out of it. What most caregivers don't realize is that something very specific is happening inside the brain to drive this. Understanding it changes both how you respond and how hard you are on yourself afterward. In this episode I walk you through why someone with dementia repeats the same questions and stories, what's actually going on neurologically, and five strategies that can help, including one proactive approach that rarely gets talked about. ⏱ CHAPTERS 0:00 - When the same question comes up again and again 1:40 - Why the brain stops storing your answers 3:00 - Why feelings outlast the facts 4:50 - When repetition is really anxiety 9:12 - Five strategies that actually help #dementia #dementiacaregiver #dementiacare #alzheimerscaregiving Get free weekly tools and tips in my newsletter, The Dementia Dose: https://tinyurl.com/dementiadose-podcast Join the Care Collective: https://tinyurl.com/podcast-cc #dementia #dementiacaregiver #shadowing #alzheimers #caregiversupport --- Hi, I'm Dr. Natali Edmonds, a board-certified geropsychologist specializing in dementia care.

Special guest Tom Bogert — now an official friend of the pod — joins John and Tim as Robert Lewandowski's move to the Chicago Fire moves frum rumor to official. Tom and Tim talk about what they know — with a deal all but confirmed but no ink on paper as of the time of recording.The trio then discuss what Lewandowski's signing would mean for the Fire, both on and off the pitch: What does Lewy's arrival mean for Hugo Cuypers, the Fire's Golden Boot-leading striker? Will two prove to be a dynamic duo, or will Hugo find himself in a new uniform before the end of the season? Tom then talks about his reporting with Paul Tenorio about the Fire's continued pursuit of German midfielder Leon Goretzka, confirmed to be moving on from Bayern and currently with the German National Team as they seek to advance in the World Cup.Speaking of — for the first time ever, two Chicago Fire players met on opposing sides of a World Cup match, as Joel Waterman's CanMNT teammates arranged for the World Cup exit for Mbekezeli Mbokazi and Bafana Bafana.
Shadowing in dementia is one of the most exhausting behaviors caregivers face, and almost no one warns you about it. You can't walk to the bathroom alone anymore. The moment you stand up, they stand up. You step into the kitchen for five minutes and there they are in the doorway, watching you. The private phone calls are gone, the personal space is gone, and then comes the guilt for even wanting a moment to yourself. In this episode I explain what is actually happening in the brain that drives shadowing, why your presence has become the only thing that makes them feel safe, and four things that genuinely help.

Before the memory problems, confusion, and obvious dementia symptoms, many families notice something else first: money problems. Missed bill payments, unusual purchases, giving money away, falling for scams, or struggling to manage finances can sometimes be among the earliest signs of dementia. Research now shows these financial changes may appear years before a dementia diagnosis is ever made. In this episode, I explain why money management is often one of the first cognitive skills affected by dementia, what the research says about financial warning signs appearing up to six years before diagnosis, and what caregivers can do to help protect a loved one's financial security. Whether you're concerned about early signs of dementia, supporting someone with Alzheimer's disease, or already navigating the challenges of caregiving, this episode will help you understand what may be happening and what steps to take next. ⏱ CHAPTERS 0:00 - Did the money warning come before the memory problems? 2:10 - What financial warning signs actually look like 4:00 - Why managing money is the brain's first stress test 8:01 - Why these signs are so easy to miss 10:43 - Practical steps to take now #dementia #dementiacaregiver #dementiasigns #alzheimers #caregiving Get free weekly tools and tips in my newsletter, The Dementia Dose: https://tinyurl.com/dementiadose-podcast Join the Care Collective: https://tinyurl.com/podcast-cc --- Hi, I'm Dr. Natali Edmonds, a board-certified geropsychologist specializing in dementia care.

If your loved one with Alzheimer's disease is on one of the new treatment drugs, or you have been weighing whether to try them, the headlines from this spring may have stopped you cold. A major review from one of the most respected research organizations in the world concluded these drugs show no meaningful benefit. Researchers immediately fired back. And you are in the middle of all of it, as a caregiver trying to make real decisions for a real person. Your confusion is completely warranted. This is not a simple story. One headline says breakthrough. The next says it does nothing. But the full picture is more complicated than either side is telling you. In this episode I walk you through what the Cochrane review actually found, why experts are so divided on it, and the three questions you can bring to your loved one's neurologist to make a more informed decision for your specific family.

189 Cumulus: Reimagining Digital Memorials and Legacy with Architect-Founder Alexander Josephson Host Marie Betcher, a registered nurse and former hospice nurse, interviews Alexander Josephson, creator of Cumulus, a Toronto/New York-based digital memorial platform designed as an immersive "memory cloud" where families can store and experience photos, videos, notes, and other legacy content in VR-accessible spaces, with mapping for gravesites or ash scatterings. Josephson shares how repeated family encounters with death—his grandparents' passing, his grandmother's Lewy body dementia, and his father's cancer, chemotherapy, and near-fatal COVID ICU stay—inspired him to build a trusted digital "place" for remembrance beyond gravestones or genealogy. He explains collaboration features, admin controls, next-of-kin account transfer, pricing tiers, and plans for a perpetuity trust, noting current users and rollout to funeral homes and cemeteries.

Have you noticed your loved one with dementia seems like a completely different person every evening? The confusion, the agitation, the restlessness — and then the nights when they're up convinced it's morning — it's exhausting in a way that's hard to put into words. It is not something you caused or something you missed. New research published in December 2025 finally gives us a neurological explanation for why dementia gets worse in the evening, and it has nothing to do with what you are doing.

The June 2026 Recall highlights four previously posted episodes on parkinsonian disorders. The episode begins with Dr. Valtteri Kaasinen discussing the clinical challenges of diagnosing Parkinson disease and how that diagnosis can evolve over time. The discussion continues with Dr. YuHong Fu, who addresses the importance of differentiating between dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson disease dementia. The third episode features Dr. Daniel Weintraub discussing clinical considerations and strategies for effective communication when addressing cognitive concerns in patients with Parkinson disease. The episode concludes with Prof. Franziska Hopfner discussing the frequency and disease trajectory of MSA patients who do not experience dysautonomia, compared with those who have autonomic involvement.

Making caregiving decisions is hard in a way most people around you won't understand. The stakes are real. The information is incomplete. And somewhere in the back of your mind, you're already afraid of being wrong. If you've been circling a decision for weeks — or months — and still can't seem to make a move, your brain isn't broken. There are five specific thought patterns that make caregiving decisions feel nearly impossible, and once you can name them, something shifts. In this video I walk you through all five and what to actually do about them. Ready to work through a real decision you've been dreading?

Prodromal autonomic dysfunction has emerged as an important area of research in understanding Lewy body diseases, including Parkinson's disease, and dementia with Lewy bodies. Dr. Michelle Matarazzo sits down with three experts in the field, Dr. Abhimanyu Mahajan, Dr. Alison Yarnall, and Dr. David Goldstein to discuss the current evidence behind various disturbances and how they may precede classic motor and cognitive symptoms, such as cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, urinary, and thermoregulatory disturbances. Together they discuss how these early non-motor manifestations may be considered integral features of the disease process. Read the Scientific Issue on this topic.
Being accused of stealing by the person you are giving everything to is one of the most quietly devastating things that happens in dementia caregiving. It does not just feel unfair. It strikes at your identity, your dignity, and the relationship you had before all of this. And because it can happen over and over, with no memory that it happened before, many caregivers absorb these accusations alone, without ever really being told why it happens or what they can actually do. There is a neurological reason for this. And it has nothing to do with how your loved one truly feels about you. In this episode I walk you through what is happening in the dementia brain that causes stealing accusations, why the instinct to defend yourself almost always backfires, and four specific things you can try the next time it happens.

A new Alzheimer's blood test was just approved by the FDA and it changes everything about how families get answers. For years, confirming Alzheimer's disease meant expensive brain scans or invasive procedures most people couldn't access. Now a simple blood draw can detect Alzheimer's markers in the body... up to 3 to 4 years before symptoms even begin.

If your loved one used to fix things, run the household, stay busy and now they just sit there, you're probably wondering what happened. Are they depressed? Have they given up? Do they even care anymore? They do. And what's happening is not what it looks like.

Bathroom challenges are one of the most common, and least talked about, parts of dementia caregiving. You've tried asking. You've tried reminding. You've tried everything. And it still isn't working. This isn't defiance. It isn't stubbornness. What's happening in the brain is making the bathroom one of the hardest spaces for someone with dementia to navigate. The bathroom requires more brain systems working together than almost any other room in the home. In this episode I walk through the most common reasons people with dementia struggle with the bathroom — and what you can do about it.

Parkinson's disease begins decades before symptoms appear — and by the time tremors start, brain changes have already been unfolding for years.In this episode of Research Renaissance, host Deborah Westphal speaks with Dr. Zachary Sorrentino, neurosurgeon, physician-scientist, and 2025 Toffler Scholar at the University of Florida. Dr. Sorrentino explains how misfolded proteins like alpha-synuclein spread through the brain, how deep brain stimulation helps restore movement, and why preventing dementia in Parkinson's patients may be the next major frontier.Drawing from both the operating room and the research lab, Dr. Sorrentino shares how his team analyzes proteins directly from surgical tools used in living patients — offering unprecedented insight into disease progression.This is a powerful conversation about aging, brain vulnerability, precision therapies, and the human side of neurosurgery.
Various Types of Dementia This week on PodcastDX, we're stepping into the complex world of dementia—not as a single diagnosis, but as a family of conditions that affect memory, thinking, behavior, and independence in different ways. We'll introduce the most common types of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, and mixed dementia, where more than one process—often Alzheimer's plus vascular changes—are happening in the brain at the same time. We'll also touch on less common causes, such as dementia related to Parkinson's disease, normal pressure hydrocephalus, repeated head injury, and certain infections or genetic conditions, and talk about why getting the right type matters for treatment, planning, and support. Key Takeaways Dementia is an umbrella term, not just Alzheimer's. The "big five" you'll hear about are Alzheimer's, vascular, Lewy body, frontotemporal, and mixed dementia. Understanding the type of dementia can guide better care, expectations, and resources for families.
Opublikowane na koncie prezydenta USA wspaniałe dzieło przedstawiające go jako Jezusa Uzdrawiającego jest pełne wzruszającej symboliki. Donald Trump jako Jezus, leczy leżącego mężczyznę, poprzez nałożenie prawej ręki na głowę ofiary. Z ręki lewej wybiegają ożywcze promienie dobra. Pierwsze co rzuca się w oczy to skromność prezydenta Trumpa, który kazał się przedstawić bez aureoli. Postać Trumpa-Jezusa otaczają symbole boskości, czyli żołnierze jako anioły ICE, widzimy wpatrzone z uwielbieniem w postać prezydenta modlącą się kobietę, pielęgniarkę, weterana i weterana z brodą. Wokół fruwają samoloty oraz orzeł. Lewy górny róg opanował łopocząca, zapewne na wietrze flaga amerykańska. Symbolika dzieła poraża widza głębią dna, które ma drugie i trzecie dno. Te dna mówią nam, że nie liczy się wyspa Epsteina, czy Lolita Ekspress, liczy się pierwsze przyjście na ziemię uosobienia Jezusa, który jest lekarstwem na zło uosabiane przez leżącego mężczyznę. Scena jednoznacznie wskazuje, że skoro prezydent leczy, to sam jest zdrowy. I dobry. I skromny.
183 Creating Digital Legacies with Reflekta AI (with Grief Specialist Dawn DeLaloye) Hospice Explained host and former hospice nurse Marie Betcher interviews grief specialist Dawn DeLaloye about Reflekta AI, an intergenerational storytelling platform that helps people create a "reflection" of themselves or loved ones—living or deceased—by adding photos, voice recordings, and memories guided by an AI biographer. Dawn explains it takes about 20 minutes to start, has launched seven months ago, and already includes about 15,000 stories; listeners can try it by talking with sample elders Virginia and Arthur. She describes how reflections can preserve details beyond photo captions, support hospice and terminally ill patients by affirming they are more than a diagnosis, and may be healing for grief, sharing her experience creating a reflection of her father who had Lewy body dementia. Dawn outlines sharing and subscription access, and how voice can be preserved using recordings or a close relative's voice. 00:00 Podcast Disclaimer 00:29 Meet Your Host 00:42 Introducing Dawn DeLaloye 02:02 What Is Reflekta AI 03:42 Early Traction 04:04 Try Talking to Elders 05:23 Why It Was Founded 07:05 Legacy for Hospice 07:34 Creating After Death 10:21 Setup Time and Prompts 11:50 Healing Through Story 13:53 Everyone Has a Story 16:13 Sharing and Subscription 18:07 Meaning at End of Life 22:11 Preserving a Loved Voice 24:49 Final Thoughts and Wrap https://reflekta.ai/ If you want to help, you can donate to help support Hospice Explained at the Buy me a Coffee link https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Hospice Hospice Explained Affiliates & Contact Information Buying from these Affilite links will help support this Podcast.

The number one mistake dementia caregivers make is waiting. Waiting until things get harder. Waiting for the right moment. Waiting until they feel like they really need support. And it makes complete sense why. When difficulty builds slowly, your brain adapts. What felt overwhelming six months ago becomes your new normal. And before long, you stop being able to accurately measure just how much your life has changed. But here is what I want you to hear. The moment things feel manageable is not the least important time to get support. It is one of the most important. In this episode I explain exactly why our brains convince us to wait, why getting support early makes such a meaningful difference, and what you can do right now even if things feel okay. You don't have to be drowning to deserve support. → Join the Care Collective: https://tinyurl.com/re-sales-podcast If you'd like to see this episode on video, you can hop on over to my YouTube channel here.

La Liga is back! Join Román de Arquer (@Aeroslavee) and Harry Gillies as they review the latest round of fixtures from Spain's top flight. Is the title race over? As Real Madrid lost in Mallorca, and Barcelona snatched a 2-1 win away at Atleti, the Catalan giants now have a seven point lead over Los Blancos. We discuss if the two Madrid clubs will now turn all of their attention to the Champions League, something Simeone seemed to suggest against Barça, leaving Julián Alvarez and Ademola Lookman on the bench. The league winner might be a certainty, but the race for the European places is gets more exciting with every week. We discuss the parallels between Real Betis and Celta, as both clubs are fighting for the same goals. Celta deployed some beautiful football away in Valencia, showing once again the fearless play style of Claudio Giráldez. Real Sociedad and Getafe have also greatly impressed and are well in the hunt to qualify for Europe. As for the bottom of the table, we discuss the stark reality for Sevilla fans that the seven-time Europa League winners get relegated, with Mallorca and Alavés putting in better performances in the fight against the drop. We also spare a thought for Real Oviedo, where it might be a case of too little too late for the Asturian side. And as always, thanks for listening and subscribing! Hosted on Acast.

Sudden decline in dementia is one of the scariest things a caregiver can witness. One day they were walking. One day they were talking. And then almost overnight, they weren't. Most caregivers in this moment think they missed something. Or that this is just the next stage. But sudden dramatic changes are not typically how dementia progresses. And knowing the difference between expected progression and a medical red flag could change everything for your loved one right now. Gradual change fits dementia. Sudden change requires investigation. In this episode I walk you through the most common medical causes of sudden decline in dementia, how to tell the difference, and exactly what to say when a doctor tells you it's just the dementia.

This is one of the most painful parts of dementia caregiving because it doesn't just feel hard. It feels personal.

Matt delves into the world of REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD), a condition at the frontiers of sleep science. Normally, the brain dreams while atonia paralyzes the body in a neural magic act that is managed by brainstem nuclei activating inhibitory "brakes" in the spinal cord. When this circuit fails, the motor system remains active, enacting nightmares in real-time.RBD is hazardous - 10% of patients sustain injuries requiring medical intervention or hospitalization. It is a prodromal synucleinopathy where misfolded proteins erode the brain's architecture and 50% of patients develop Parkinson's or Lewy body dementia within a decade. Matt concludes by noting that new skin biopsy biomarkers like Syn-One now offer hope for early detection.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.One of today's sponsors, LMNT, offers a science-based electrolyte drink with no sugar or artificial ingredients.

Dave opens with a deeply personal and emotional tribute to Linda's father, Tony, who recently passed after a long battle with Lewy body dementia, and other ailments. He shares heartfelt memories of Tony's exceptional character—his strength, kindness, love of family, rock 'n' roll roots, teaching career, and unwavering positivity—reflecting on how Tony's compassion and support played a huge role in Dave's own recovery and relationship with Linda. The episode also touches on recent losses (Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead and actor James Ransone from The Wire), with Dave offering a half-hearted amend to Weir, pondering the future of Dead & Company, and urging listeners to reach out if struggling with depression. He then replays his powerful, candid interview with Alec Baldwin, where Alec gets brutally honest about his 40 years of sobriety, wild 80s cocaine-and-alcohol-fueled days in New York and LA, the terrifying overdose that led to his bottom, finding AA as his new “family,” the spiritual shift that kept him sober, and how the program carried him through massive personal and public storms (including his divorce and the Rust tragedy).
