J Smiles

Patti Davis, US President Ronald Reagan's daughter, joins J for an in-depth conversation about her new book, Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's.

Patti shares personal stories of caring for her dad and becoming a caregiver saved her life. J digs into Patti's experience running a support group for caregivers after her dad's death. The honesty about  issues with family members, struggles with denial and learning to lie are only a few of the topics where these two dive deep.

They highlight several of the book's how-to's, best practices and much more in this "how to be" resource rich episode.

As always J's signature SNUGGLE UP ending, offers provocative take aways.
