  • Projections and Assumptions
    Just returned from a rejuvenating weekend away, and I'm here to dive deep into a topic that's been on my heart—projections and assumptions in caregiving. ✨ Join me as I unravel the emotions hidden beneath my mom's words, like her oft-repeated "you're so busy," which speaks volumes about her loneliness and desire for connection. In this episode, I'll share personal insights into understanding these cues, embracing patience, and finding ways to create meaningful moments amidst the challenge of Lewy body dementia. Take a deep breath, practice some self-care, and let's navigate this journey together.

  • The Importance of Having a Medical Log
    Today, I’m diving deep into the importance of maintaining a detailed medication log for our loved ones. Having juggled numerous meds for my mom, I've learned the hard way about the significance of recording not just the 'what,' but the 'why' of every shift. This log has become my lifesaver in tracking changes and managing side effects. Plus, always make time for a little self-care! We're in this journey together.

Sobre Lewy Body and Mindful Caregiving

Lewy Body and Mindful Caregiving is a weekly podcast hosted by yours truly, Krystal Jakosky. I’ve always been open to discussing death and the end-of-life challenges we will all face. Yet, in November of 2023, my Mom was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia, and suddenly everything became a LOT more real. My aim is to bring awareness and understanding of the rollercoaster specific to Lewy Body. If you are supporting someone or know of someone who is dealing with dementia in any way, I hope this podcast can be a boost and support. Simply knowing you’re not alone can be the best lifeline. You can listen to the Lewy Body and Mindful Caregiving podcast on any platform you use to listen, OR you can watch it on my Youtube channel. These videos will be a front-row, visual witness to the struggles, challenges, heartbreaks, and humor I’ll experience as I learn. You may think humor is an odd statement to add here. I assure you, it’s not. Finding and cherishing the moments that make us laugh is paramount to mental health, especially when you’re faced with a disease like Lewy Body.
