September BlogTalkRadio – 4 Interviews for Adult Children of Aging Parents

by Dale on September 10, 2009

I will be hosting 4 BlogTalkRadio interviews during the month of September.  For future months, if you wish to get Advance Notice of the interviews, just sign-up for my ezine (in the box to your right on this page).

I am pleased to share the names and background of my guests!  I’ve had amazing conversations with these guests as I inquired about interviews.  They are all knowledgable and very willing to share with each of us so that we, as adult children and caregivers, can educate ourselvesgain strategies that will enrich our relationship with…and strengthen our personal advocacy for our aging parents.

So, take a moment, check our schedule below and mark your calendar.  If you can listen live, you will be able to ask our guests questions, either by calling in or by  the online chat feature.    You can either click on the link below to get to my BlogTalkRadio show or you can click on the BlogTalkRadio icon to the right on this web page.  If you can’t listen live, a recording will be made available immediately after the show ends.

As always, I wish you the very best on your journey with your aging parent.  Please feel free to comment below about any upcoming or past recorded show from the list below.  Or suggest someone you’d like to hear interviewed!

  • (Sept 8, 6pm EDT)Geriatric Care Manager for Your Aging Parent”.   Amy Abrams, certified Geriatric Care Manager, joins me to discuss how a geriatric care manager can help you and your aging parent. Why you’d want to consider a care manager, what services are offered, what training/certification to look for, and the steps to finding, selecting, hiring and retaining one.
  • (Sept 14, 6pm EDT)Capture Your Aging Parent’s Life Story”.  Debra Joy joins me to share her new service of Bcelebrated.com, enabling you to capture your aging parent’s life story, favorite photos, videos, last wishes, and later to serve as a memorial site. A wonderful way to share in your parent’s life memories and honor them.
  • (Sept 21, 7pm EDT)Use Memory Triggers to Communicate with Your Aging Parent”. Nadine Brechner, author of “Memory Triggers”, joins me to share how her new, specially designed books facilitate meaningful conversation and interaction with our aging parents.  Nadine designed these books for her mother who has Alzheimer’s.  Even if your parent is free of dementia, I think they will still find these books appealing with vibrant colors and photos representing all aspects of bygone eras.
