In this episode, part two of my conversation with Dr Tia Powell, author of the new book Dementia Reimagined: Building a Life of Joy and Dignity from Beginning to End. I highly recommend this book to families and professionals alike--it's worth your valuable time.

This part of our conversation focuses on how the HIV/AIDS crisis shaped Dr Powell as a new doctor; how a shift in thinking from disease cure to disease management can impact daily life; and how we as a community can support both family and professional care partners.

Finally, Dr Powell shares a gut-wrenching decision she and her family were asked to make more than once, and how that played out.
