Скачать или смотреть Caregiving: Challenges and Lessons Learned - A Conversation with Dave Iverson

An Ashby Village Arts & Culture Series Presentation*
Dave Iverson was a 59-year-old KQED broadcast journalist and filmmaker when he decided to do something he’d never imagined. He moved back into his childhood home when his 95-year-old mom could no longer care for herself.

Dave’s new memoir, Winter Stars: An Elderly Mother, An Aging Son and Life’s Final Journey, is the story of their 10-year caregiving odyssey, lasting until his mom’s passing at the age of 105.

In a live interview with NPR Senior Editor and Correspondent Ron Elving, Dave talks about his poignant and path-breaking new book and our growing eldercare crisis.

Watch an intimate, unvarnished conversation about the challenges, choices and unexpected rewards of caring for someone during life's final journey.
