Rosanne spoke to Pippa Kelly on her podcast What I Know Now. "To put it bluntly, in her own words, she says she’s a full-time, sandwich-generation dementia caregiver and she’s exhausted."

In this episode, we discuss the difficulties she encountered in getting a proper medical diagnosis for her mother, caregiving during COVID, the pitfalls in being a competent caregiver, how to survive life in the sandwich generation, and the grief that comes when dementia care reaches its natural conclusion.
