Description

This week’s episode "A Caregiver's Christmas" is all about finding joy in the journey, even during the holiday season.  Our team’s desire is to help families find peace and comfort during Christmas. We also desire as always to help those living with dementia have the best holiday possible. Today's special guest is Mary Anne's friend, mentor, and the one that keeps her grounded, Toni Joleen Clay. Toni is on her fifth experience as a caregiver. She will be the first to tell you that the education as a counselor along with her studies at John Hopkins could not prepare her for the intense journey ahead. Yet, she finds great joy in serving those she loves. After all, is that not what we are supposed to do? This episode will help all of you who care for your loved ones during this holiday season. Our prayer is that it will make you laugh and feel the joy of this season. We thank all of you who have taken the time to listen, experience and enjoy this podcast this year. May you all have a wonderful Christmas. www.theverandaministries.org

Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly, the director of the Veranda Ministries in Gallatin, TN, is the host of this conversational journey on aging, care-giving and most of all - loving the elderly. You will learn, laugh, cry and desire to do more to help those who qualify as the "invisible elderly." This bi-monthly podcast will feature some of today's experts on dementia, Alzheimer's, senior advocacy and aging. It's Mary Anne's desire to see Christians and the church be on the forefront of caring and showing respect and dignity to our aging population. She not only preaches it - she lives it. Mary Anne is also the author of the book "Remember For Me" - Life Lessons from Those Living with Dementia. www.theverandaministries.org
