This week's episode is honestly one that Mary Anne never dreamed she would record on the “Aging, Angst & Alleluias Podcast.” As an advocate for those living with dementia and their families, Mary Anne suddenly experienced a heart attack and immediately became an advocate for herself and for her own brain. This was a tough job especially when there were so many physicians counseling her on what to do.
From the first plan of care until that dismal day from the hospital, every tool Mary Anne had in her toolbox was used, and she was grateful for the knowledge attained through the years on brain and cardiac health.
Mary Anne's goal for this episode is: Be prepared for the journey ahead. Know what you want and how you want it. Make decisions that you can live with, and most of all - learn how to be your own best advocate. Be proactive with the care you will want and need, especially when or if death is possible. As Mary Anne's attorney says, "It's never too late until it's too late."
