The Roberta Series | Episode 1 - The Why, What and Intent Behind It
In this opening episode, I share the story behind The Roberta Series — why I created it, what it’s about, and who it’s for. When my mom, Roberta, was diagnosed with dementia, I realized how little I actually knew about the disease — beyond the basics of memory loss, confusion, and agitation. That diagnosis was the beginning of a long, eye-opening journey for our family.
This series isn’t just about dementia — it’s about the real, messy, and complicated experience of caring for a difficult parent and trying not to lose yourself in the process. My hope is that it offers understanding, support, and maybe even a little comfort for anyone walking a similar path.
Caring for someone who’s nearing the end of their life — even under the best circumstances — will take a lot out of you. Especially with a difficult parent, you just want to get through it, and it’s easy to feel isolated or alone. The emotions, the history, the triggers… it’s a lot. This is a rough journey, and it’s okay to reach out. I’d love to hear from you — your questions, your story, or just to connect.
