At the end, I don't know if they had a process or an outlet to grieve. All we can do, the best we can do, I think, is be role models, feel our feelings and step into the next best version of who we can possibly be right and share our knowledge with the world. And again, thank you so much for coming on the podcast Today.
Imagine facing the daunting challenge of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's during a global pandemic. That's exactly what Mark Resnick experienced, and in this episode of 'Emerge. Evolve. Lead.', he shares his deeply personal journey. Hosted by Maureen Ross Gemme, this conversation dives into how Mark navigated the emotional and physical toll of caregiving, especially when compounded by the isolating effects of Covid-19. But instead of succumbing to despair, Mark found unexpected blessings in his struggle.
He shared over 200 meals and countless cups of coffee with his dad, forging a bond that turned hardship into a profound gift. Through these experiences, Mark discovered his passion for writing and penned the book 'Ten Days with Dad: Finding Purpose, Passion, & Peace during the darkest days of Alzheimer’s and Covid-19'. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, the power of forgiveness, and the importance of pursuing one's passions at any stage in life.
Whether you're a caregiver yourself or simply looking for inspiration on how to find light in dark times, Mark's story offers valuable lessons and a reminder that growth often comes from the most challenging circumstances.
