On previous episode number 28, "Markers of the Heart" touched on the truth about advocating for ourselves. This week's episode number 29 continues with that topic as Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly and Sue Duffield discuss how to support and advocate for those living with dementia and the aging population. As usual, something always sparks Mary Anne's desire to share the truth with honest concern of life lessons she has learned in her advocacy journey. This week is no exception. Discussion includes Mary Anne's new diagnosis of "non-specified dementia" and also the arrest of a gentleman with FTD and that family's horrific journey. It's very obvious that this culture needs better understanding for those living with dementia. Most of all, the realization is vital to find ways to advocate for our loved one's health, as well as our own. The end of this episode shows a little levity that always seems to work its way into the dialogue between Mary Anne and Sue. It's sort of like a therapeutic release so desperately needed when talking about some of the most difficult realities of aging.
