"Life is short, why not try new things? Our stories matter. Sharing our stories matter." - Katie Prentiss
Host, Mark Turnbull explores the complexities of aging, particularly focusing on frontotemporal dementia (FTD) through the personal story of Katie Prentiss, who became a caregiver for her mother diagnosed with FTD.
The discussion delves into the emotional and practical challenges of caregiving, the impact of dementia on family dynamics, and the lessons learned about empathy and presence during difficult times. Katie shares her journey of navigating the diagnosis, the changes in her mother's behavior, and the profound effects on her family, emphasizing the importance of being present and compassionate in the face of loss. She discusses the challenges of navigating loss, the importance of connection with others facing similar experiences, and how these events inspired her to pursue filmmaking as a means of expression and healing.
It is this experience of love and loss that is driving Katie to take a leap of faith into filmmaking to share her story with her Mom and bringing empathy to frontotemporal dementia (FTD.)
