In this episode of our podcast, we open up about the emotional and challenging journey we’ve been on while caring for Todd’s mother, Carol, who is fighting a tough battle with aggressive bone cancer. We explore the complexities we’ve faced while navigating the healthcare system, the importance of being advocates in elder care, and the deep, life-changing lessons we’ve learned about compassion, love, and the honor it is to serve the elderly.
Our conversation is a sincere reflection on the personal impact that caregiving has had on us and the universal need for empathy when dealing with terminal illness.
