Dr. Jeanette Gallagher welcomes Amy Friesen, author of Breadcrumbs – From Home Care to Care Homes, to explore our last decades in this life and what happens to our support.

What happens when you become an elder? What are the hot button topics that are not spoken about until the event that changes our life hits the fan and we are left scrambling to find help or solutions?

We could list all the aspects of life that are suddenly in flux as we age, become unwell, or cannot take care of self as decades before have played out.

What are the barriers to having a successful plan and honoring the exit of this life with grace for a loved one? Money, fear, and unresolved family dynamics are the barriers that are behind almost all of the decisions that are made in elder care.

What do you do if there is no support system? What happens when our mind no longer is dependable and held as the reasoning factor in making life or health challenges? What happens when our support system or loved ones are no longer in our lives?

Divorce, death, terminal illness, aging, poverty, violence, isolation, loneliness, and many other concerns are the hot topics that families put to the side until a crisis forces them to see the reality of the moment. Perhaps you may have had the discussions and completed all plans for your elder loved ones and praying that they will follow the plan to the time of their last physical moment in this lifetime. What happens when plans go out the door?
