Ep. 9 The Quest for What’s Best: One Family’s Journey from Home, to Senior Community, to Home Again
Manage episode 407333529 series 3559507
Suzanne Forman bravely shares her family’s story in detail and covers many of the subjects we most often don’t want to discuss. It’s a heartfelt must-listen.
Every member of the family is affected when faced with what to do with aging parents. For Suzanne, as her mother’s memory loss accelerated, so did the urgency to step in and try to help. In doing so, she became her parent’s full-time caretaker, and instead of it making things better, things only got worse. It was hard to go back and live with them. Old father-daughter issues came up, as did problems with her siblings, the family’s overall finances and so much more.
In this far-reaching and intimate interview, Suzanne graciously lays out all the ups and downs her family went through at home, then in a senior community, and then at home again. If you ever had questions about the feasibility of becoming your parent’s caretaker, this interview covers it all, from hurt feelings and butting heads, to checkbooks, big life choices and who drives the family car. It’s a candid and relatable interview you’ll be sure to want to share with those you love.
