When Your Parents Need Care | with, Amy ...

Chalene Johnson
About this episode

Almost all of us at some point will have to face the reality of taking care of an aging parent or loved one. And if you’ve been following Chalene for the past couple of years, you know she and her husband, Bret, have been dealing with this matter — caring for her father-in-law, Bob, who has Alzheimer’s. So today, Chalene welcomes Amy Cameron O’Rourke — aging expert, professional care manager for more than 40 years and author of the The Fragile Years. In this beautiful and important conversation, Chalene and Amy cover myriad topics we should all be aware of when it comes to the end of life wishes of our loved ones and ourselves.
