About this episode
The episode discusses the emotional challenges faced by Black caregivers during Alzheimer's and Brain Awareness Month.
🧠 💜 Caregivers carry more than responsibility. They carry grief, exhaustion, love, and memories too. During Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month, let’s talk about the emotional toll caregiving takes on Black families. If you’re a caregiver, this is your reminder. Your mental health matters too. #AlzheimersAwareness #BrainAwarenessMonth #CaregiverSupport #BlackMentalHealth #MedicineForTheMelanated
