Description

It’s not unusual to have difficulty finding the right word or remembering where you put things. But persistent problems with memory or the ability to perform everyday tasks might be signs of something more serious. An "Early Onset of Dementia" or "Mild Cognitive Impairment" diagnosis can be a sudden blow to any family. In this case and on this episode, gospel musician, Josh Singletary, shares about his Mom with a recent diagnosis of dementia. His honesty of the unknown road ahead makes this a vulnerable story of a family trying to pull together for their loved one.  Josh’s love for his Mom, his knowledge of music and faith in the Lord and his family's desire to walk this unknown territory with their eyes wide open, is encouraging for any family walking this dementia journey.   www.verandaministries.org www.joshsingletary.com

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.
