Episode 56 is a continuation from previous episode 55 (Unmerited Favor: A Daughter's Love Caring for Both Parents with Dementia) with Mary Gail Anderson, an adult child of two parents suffering with dementia and Parkinson's. This is caregiving to the absolute ultimate. Her exact words, when dealing with the medical professionals are, "question everything." Seriously, question everything.

As someone ages with dementia-like diseases and/or Parkinson's, their health appears to deteriorate in a way that can seem slow at first. It's as if they are inching toward a cliff — and when they fall off, they find themselves on another health cliff, and another, and another. With each cliff, it gets more difficult for a family member to catch them.

Mary Gail's compelling story hopes to encourage all caregivers to constantly do in-depth research when it comes to medical care for their loved ones.
