Talking to Kids about Dementia with Alder Allensworth - Caregiver Spotlight

  • Summary

  • Alder Allensworth cared for her mother who had Alzheimer’s and her father who had vascular dementia. Alder’s inspiration to co-create a children’s tool kit for families came from watching her mother interact with her grandchildren.


    In this episode of the Happy Healthy Caregiver podcast, we talk about the resources Alder and her friend Brenda created to help children better understand dementia. Alder shares the benefits of having structure in our days, how a continuing care retirement community was the right fit for her parents for a while, how FMLA allowed her to be present for her parents in their final weeks, and what her daily energizing self-care practices look like.
