Elder Love 101: When We Become the Parents

Join Gail on the Politics & Prose Podcast as we delve into the intricate landscape of caring for aging parents—a journey that often proves to be emotionally demanding and filled with challenges. For those taking on the role of caregiver for their aging parents, the importance of approaching these delicate matters with empathy, respect, and open communication cannot be overstated. Moreover, it's equally crucial to find moments of laughter amid tears and to carve out time for self-care. Whether you have the support of siblings or not, there are pathways to navigate these trying times and connect with advocates who can accompany you on this caregiving journey.

Tune in as Gail engages in insightful conversations with three remarkable women who are presently caring for their aging parents. These candid discussions will showcase their personal experiences, the hurdles they've encountered, and the strategies that have led to their achievements.

It's essential to remember that every family's elder care situation is unique, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. In this shared journey, the cornerstones of communication, patience, and empathy will serve as your guiding lights. For those grappling with specific legal or financial concerns, we highly recommend seeking advice from professionals who specialize in elder care and estate planning.
