Hello, everyone! I’m sharing with you all the Caregiver Chronicles, where I narrate each stage of the Alzheimer’s disease that my mother has been facing since 2019.
I provide all the details without filters and with a comedic touch, reflecting our experience just as it is. I hope you enjoy reading it and that it helps you better understand the disease. It may also be useful for those who are in the same situation as caregivers.
Thank you for accompanying me on this journey!
