Teaching Learning Leading K-12

Kathleen Bjork - My Mother is Losing Her Memory, and I am Losing My Mind: Parenting the Aging Parent. This is episode 726 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.

My Mother is Losing Her Memory, and I Am Losing My Mind: Parenting the Aging Parent is the true story of a mother's journey through dementia that is told through the eyes of her caregiver daughter, Kathleen Bjork. Related with compassion and humor, it details the mother's fight to keep her independence and the family's decisions to keep her safe. 

Loss of control of her finances as well as her car is met with anger, and a fall which results in a broken hip and rehabilitation confirms that she cannot live alone. A concession to let her return to live in her own home with a caregiver ends in disaster. 

Our focus is Kathleen’s book My Mother is Losing Her Memory, and I Am Losing My Mind: Parenting the Aging Parent.

Powerful talk.

So much to learn.
