Dr. John Cuddeback, professor of philosophy at Christendom College and the Institute of Catholic Culture, joins the Sunrise Morning Show to discuss caring for the elderly and what their presence can teach us about what truly matters in life. Drawing from his book The Intentional Household: Living as if People Matter, Dr. Cuddeback explores the importance of intergenerational relationships, helping children know their grandparents, and making the household a place where the elderly belong.

They also discuss the possibility of dying at home, the role of hospice and modern medicine, and why embracing the bodily realities and rituals surrounding death can help families rediscover the beauty and meaning of life.
