This episode is personal. Maahi shares the story of Josephine Auntie, his best friend's mother, a woman who has cooked for him, checked on him, and cared for him like her own son for over ten years, now living with Parkinson's.
From there, the episode breaks down what's actually happening in the brain with Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Dementia, what makes each one different, how they're connected, and what science actually knows about these conditions.
But the real heart of this episode is about empathy. If someone in your life is dealing with any of these conditions, or honestly anything difficult at all, this episode is for you. A small check in, a message, a phone call, it matters more than you think, even when it feels like it doesn't.
Topics covered:
- What's happening in the brain with Parkinson's
- How Parkinson's can lead to dementia over time
- What Alzheimer's and Dementia actually are
- Other related conditions, Vascular Dementia, Lewy Body Dementia, Frontotemporal Dementia
- How to show up for someone going through any of this, with empathy and without judgment
This episode discusses sensitive topics around illness and memory loss. If this brings up anything difficult for you personally, please know that support is always available.
