AlzAuthors Finds a New Home at All Home Care Matters    

The Cheryl Hauser Effect: Alzheimer's Through a Family's Eyes 

Lori La Bey talks with Wendy Longacre Brown, a certified end-of-life doula who is one of the founding members of the Minnesota Death Collaborative. She has supported clients in Minnesota and Wisconsin, worked alongside her mother through VSED (Voluntary Stopping Eating and Drinking), and brings decades of experience as a video and film producer in corporate and advertising settings.  

Sarah Longacre is Wendy’s sister and is a certified birth doula, entrepreneur, and community connector. She founded Blooma, a pioneering pre- and postnatal yoga and education studio, and has been recognized with multiple awards for her leadership in childbirth education. 



LEARN:


How do families typically make decisions about end of life, and what does that look like?
When should palliative and hospice services be considered?
That is a Death Doula or End-of-Life Doula
What is VSED, and how does it work?
Is VSED combined with hospice or Death Doulas?
How do people educate themselves about VSED to be able to evaluate if the concept is right for them?
How can family, friends, and professionals help provide dignity to the person they are caring for at the end of life?

The Cheryl Hauser Effect: Alzheimer's Through a Family's Eyes 

Dementia Isn’t Something You Fix — It’s Something You Face
Lori La Bey talks with Glenna Hecht, a speaker, consultant, and the author of How Old Are You Today? Dementia, A Mother, A Daughter, and The Game That Transformed Their Lives. As a daughter who refused to let dementia erase her mother, Glenna wrote her book to help others stay connected when memory fades. Glenna has led HR for iconic brands, but still says her toughest and most meaningful role was as a caregiver.

Learn:
The difference between fixing and facing dementia
The art of care
The rules of care
What time travel have to do with dementia
How does the game/tool “How old are you today” work?
How to deal with guilt, grief, and confusion
How heartbreak and humor can work together to maintain sanity
