307 / Do I Look At You With Love? / Mark Freeman

Last Born In The Wilderness

Mark Freeman, narrative psychologist and Distinguished Professor of Ethics and Society at the College of the Holy Cross, discusses his book Do I Look at You with Love?: Reimagining the Story of Dementia, documenting the final twelve years of his mother’s life of cognitive decline with dementia. This interview explores the complex reality of the narratives of the self, memory, the “tragic promise” of dementia, relationship, and the final acts of care one can provide for a dying loved one. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/mark-freeman // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast
