Fantastic listen for any caregiver

I was feeling down and hopeless as I do do many days in caring for my mom with Alzheimer’s. This podcast lifted my spirits and reminded me that I am doing a lot right. I also needed the reminder to always look to the savior in times of need. I will continue listening to this podcast indefinitely.
