Remember Me22 Helmi 2022

Anne S.

Today's episode features Rachael and Maria's insta-friend Libby.

Libby shares her mother's very sudden and swift journey with FTD -- with her diagnosis only coming just months before her passing. Libby so captivatingly walking us through the story step by step -- and shares how difficult it was to be in her 20s suddenly in charge of making important decisions for her mother who could no longer effectively communicate.

Anne S., or "Mama Stivers" as she was fondly known, was a loving mom and infectiously kind woman who worked for the local High School. Listen to hear at the end to hear all about her beautiful spirit. We captured some mom tips from Mama Stivers that we will be carrying on with our kids.
