  • Audio mic feedback or is there a tv playing during your recording?

    I am new to this podcast. A bit desperate for information after concluding that my Dad is in early stages of Alzheimer’s. You provide wonderful information but the audio is terrible, and extremely hard to hear. It’s either echoing feedback from your microphone or…is there a TV/radio playing in the background? Is there anyway to fix this?

  • Interesting but not up to date with all advances

    In your latest episode, you say that Alzheimer’s can only be diagnosed by an autopsy post-mortem. This is no longer true. PET scans can visualize amyloid plaques and tau tangles and there are biomarkers in the spinal fluid as well.

Lisa Skinner interviews Jill Poser: Aging in Place

Lisa Skinner interviews Jill Poser: Aging in Place
Q: So based on your experience both professionally and personally, what would you say adult children should focus on in the first months after receiving the Alzheimer's or dementia diagnosis?
Jill emphasizes forming a care team early, addressing financial and legal affairs, and understanding that the situation is broader than the disease itself, while also recognizing the emotional impact on the family.
From Caregiver to Creator: The Story Behind KindredMind with Kirstin Thomas
Q: How does the onboarding work and what makes the voice clone effective?
An eight-minute initial conversation with a virtual assistant builds the voice clone and knowledge base, enabling realistic, responsive calls that feel familiar to the person living with dementia.
From Caregiver to Creator: The Story Behind KindredMind with Kirstin Thomas
Q: What inspired you to create KindredMind?
Personal caregiving experiences, particularly watching a loved one's struggle with cognitive decline, highlighted the need for a supportive, emotionally attuned tool to stay connected and manage repetitive reassurance calls.
Guest Kandiee Campbell: Her story of Dementia
Q: Did your professional training influence how you approached communication with a loved one with dementia?
Yes, she used research and guidance from professors to avoid arguing, choosing to let him live in his world and gently acknowledge his experiences without correction.
