This heartfelt book chronicles Anthony's journey as the primary caregiver for his wife Carol, who was diagnosed with Frontotemporal Degeneration (FTD)--a rare and devastating form of dementia.In this talk, Anthony explores not only the challenges of loving someone with dementia but also the emotional toll of witnessing them gradually slip away. He shares the transformative role that mindfulness and compassion played in helping him cope.
Attendees will gain insights into dementia and a practical meditation approach that helped the author reframe his pain and find peace. This presentation offers inspiration and hope to anyone facing illness, caregiving, or emotional hardship.
