      <description>In this episode, I explore the complex world of caregiving through my own experiences and the stories of incredible challenges when my mother faced health crises.
As a caregiver, I understand firsthand the challenges when a loved one's health is at stake. In this episode, I'll delve into the emotional and physical toll that caregiving can take, and we'll uncover the resilience and strength it demands.
Join me as I share stories of navigating healthcare systems, managing stress, and finding moments of hope and happiness amidst the chaos. I'll shed light on the often-overlooked journey of caregivers, illuminating their incredible contributions.
In the latter part of the episode, I'll transport you back in time to explore my mother's life, a young woman who grappled with the challenges of fitting in among the military wives on the base where my father was stationed. Through her perspective, we'll dive into themes of isolation, the search for belonging, and the profound impact of community support.
This is a journey of resilience, empathy, and the unwavering spirit of caregivers. Join me as we unravel the intricate web of caregiving and the pursuit of belonging.

      <description>Embarking on an intimate journey through the chapters of a remarkable life, join me for an episode that unveils the power of generational stories. In "Unveiling Generational Stories: Navigating Alzheimer's and a Lifetime of Motherhood," we traverse the heartfelt passages of a woman's existence, entwined with the complexities of Alzheimer's.
As my mother, now in her nineties, navigates the ebbs and flows of memory, I become the narrator of her life's tapestry. Together, we navigate through the cherished moments that defined her journey – a journey woven with threads of resilience and sacrifice. The title of "mother" echoes with both the joyous laughter of parenting and the haunting whispers of self-doubt. These emotions, palpable in her story, resonate deeply with countless mothers across time.
Through her eyes, I trace the contours of her life's landscape, from youth's exuberance to motherhood's challenges within different marriages. Her experiences vividly depict the sacrifices she willingly made and the doubts she wrestled with. Her life is a testament to the strength that motherhood demands, a strength she has exhibited through every twist and turn.
Alzheimer's casts a shadow over the canvas of her memories, blurring the lines between past and present. Yet, as we navigate this new terrain together, the potency of storytelling shines brighter than ever. The narratives shared in this episode bridge the gap between generations, serving as a tribute to the ties that bind us.
"Unveiling Generational Stories: Navigating Alzheimer's and a Lifetime of Motherhood" is a heartfelt narrative of the resilience that defines us and a poignant reminder that every memory and story is worth preserving. Join me as we share the landscape of a life defined by love, sacrifice, and the enduring legacy of motherhood.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-30-Lost-and-Found-A-Journey-Through-Alzheimers-and-Grief-e2dkk7e</link>
      <description>In this emotionally charged episode, I take you on a profound journey through the intertwining paths of Alzheimer's and heart-wrenching grief. Drawing from my personal experiences, I open up about the relentless struggle to find resources and support for my mother after her Alzheimer's diagnosis. The challenges seemed insurmountable, yet love and determination pushed us forward.
But this tale isn't just about Alzheimer's; it's also a story of unspeakable loss and the search for answers after the disappearance of my beloved daughter and the heartbreaking events surrounding her murder. The parallels between these two devastating chapters are haunting and awe-inspiring.
As I navigate these emotionally charged waters, I share how our family clung to hope, resilience, and the strength found within each other. It's a testament to the human spirit, showing how the heart can withstand immense pain and still find a way to heal.
Join me in this raw and vulnerable episode, where I shed light on the darkness of Alzheimer's and grief. In these stories, I'll explore the profound connection between these life-altering experiences and discover the transformative power of love, hope, and remembrance in the face of unimaginable adversity.

      <title>Episode 27: The Sacrifice and Struggles: A Mother's Decision, a Daughter's Dilemma</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-27-The-Sacrifice-and-Struggles-A-Mothers-Decision--a-Daughters-Dilemma-e2dkk78</link>
      <description>In this poignant episode into the heart-wrenching journey, my mother made the difficult decision to leave her children behind to escape an abusive relationship. Despite knowing it was the right thing to do for their safety, her departure created a profound struggle she carried with her.
The narrative explores the emotional and psychological turmoil my mother experienced in the aftermath, grappling with guilt, sorrow, and a deep longing to protect and be with her children. The void left by their absence haunted her every day, and she constantly questioned if she had made the right choice. 
Interwoven within this narrative is the story of my daughter, who found herself making a troubling choice: returning to the same abusive relationship she had once escaped. It examines the psychological dynamics of abusive relationships and how the abuser manipulates and exerts control over their victims, often blurring the lines between love, fear, and dependency.
Through this thought-provoking portrayal, the narrative sheds light on the multifaceted nature of abuse, its lasting impact on individuals, and the challenging decisions survivors face. 
Ultimately, this episode serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength exhibited by survivors and emphasizes the significance of continued efforts to raise awareness, provide support, and break the cycle of domestic violence for future generations.

      <description>In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the struggles and frustrations that arise from unreliable service providers in the context of Alzheimer's caregiving. Join us as we explore the immense challenges caregivers face navigating an already complex landscape, compounded by the unreliability of service providers. Through personal anecdotes and insights, we shed light on the emotional, logistical, and practical difficulties that emerge when trust is broken. Together, we examine these challenges' impact on caregivers and their loved ones with Alzheimer's, offering perspectives and potential solutions for a more supportive and reliable caregiving experience.In the second part of this compelling episode, we shift our focus to an inspiring story of determination and longing. Join us as we delve into the captivating journey of Timiro, who harboured an unwavering desire to leave her village as a young woman.

      <description>In this episode, I discuss the intricate art of balancing caregiver responsibilities when caring for a loved one. Caregiving often involves overwhelming tasks, from medical appointments to household chores and emotional support. As caregivers, it's crucial to assess and determine what truly matters most and what tasks can be deferred or delegated without compromising the quality of care.

In the second part of this episode, I share the story of my mother as a young woman longing to break free from the confines of her small village.  Through my story, I discuss the challenges my mother and I faced, the internal conflicts we grappled with, and how we ultimately found a path honouring her needs and her love for her family. This candid conversation provides a unique perspective on the delicate balance between personal fulfillment and caregiving responsibilities, offering inspiration and valuable insights for listeners facing similar challenges. Join me as we delve into this deeply personal narrative, gaining a profound understanding of the struggles, sacrifices, and, ultimately, the triumphs caregivers experience in their quest for balance and fulfillment.

      <description>In this heartfelt episode, I delve into the profound struggles faced when deciding to not hospitalize a loved one in the late stages of Alzheimer's due to their expressed wish to avoid such a fate.

Join me as I share stories, delve into the intricacies of human connection, and uncover the resilience required when confronting the complexities of Alzheimer's disease. This episode promises to be a profound exploration of the human experience, reminding us of the enduring power of love, empathy, and the unbreakable bonds that shape our lives.

      <title>Episode 19: A Difficult Start: Navigating Medical Challenges and Emotional Struggles as a New Mom</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-19-A-Difficult-Start-Navigating-Medical-Challenges-and-Emotional-Struggles-as-a-New-Mom-e2dkk73</link>
      <description>Becoming a new mom is one of the most transformative experiences a woman can go through. But for some, the journey to motherhood is fraught with challenges that can make the transition to parenthood even more difficult. In this episode, I share the emotional obstacles my mother faced in her inability to connect with her firstborn, her ups and downs, and the lessons she learned. 
From struggling to get intravenous antibiotics to deal with the boil growing in her lower back to feeling disconnected from her firstborn, I share the ups and downs of her journey and the lessons she learned along the way. I discuss self-advocacy's importance in navigating the medical system for my mother living with Alzheimer's and dealing with the taboo of admitting when motherhood isn't what you expected, and the strategies she used to cope with the emotional toll of a difficult start and hard ends.
Whether you're a new mom or a caregiver taking care of a loved one living with Alzheimer's, this episode offers a raw and honest perspective on the challenges many women face when starting their parenting journey and the difficulties caregivers encounter daily.

      <description>In this episode, I explore the powerful story of my mother's journey through illness and cultural tradition, shedding light on the challenges faced by individuals living with Alzheimer's disease. The first half of the episode centers on my mother, who was admitted to the hospital due to high blood sugar levels related to Alzheimer's. I discuss the unique challenges of hospitalization for someone with Alzheimer's and how the disease can complicate medical care. In the second half of the episode, we hear about my mother's decision to take a "cursed finger" to get out of her marriage, despite the cultural stigma surrounding such a choice. Throughout the episode, we witness the strength and resilience of the human spirit and examine the impact of cultural expectations on personal decisions. The episode underscores the importance of understanding the complexities of Alzheimer's disease and cultural traditions to promote compassionate care and support for those facing difficult choices.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-15-The-Day-My-Mother-Forgot-to-Walk-e2dkk76</link>
      <description>In this episode, I share the story of the day my mother forgot to walk. In contrast to that time, she decided to take back her freedom by leaving her husband for six weeks. In 2021, I realized that Alzheimer's is unpredictable and a great thief,  just like how my mother's circumstances as a girl robbed her of her freedom.

      <title>Episode 14: Alzheimer: Making Decisions Behind a Blind Fold</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-14-Alzheimer-Making-Decisions-Behind-a-Blind-Fold-e2dkk6o</link>
      <description>Making decisions in keeping my mother safe is like making all my decisions wearing a blind fold. Often I reach the final destination after several stumbles. Similarly my mother makes her decision to leave her first husband without having a plan of all the steps that followed the first step of walking out. Like me she had to figure it out one step at a time.

      <description>In the first half of this episode, I share how I changed my approach in dealing with my mother. Once I decided to see things with my mother's eyes, everything became clear to me. My decision to join my mother in her world, didn't eliminated the challenge, but it made it manageable. In the second half, my mother as a girl faces a similar situation. For the first time, she is forced to see her father as a man in need a wife, rather than one put on this earth to take care of her. It is with the realization that she has to put herself in her father's shoes and make her decision accordingly.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-9-Finding-A-Balance-e2dkk7d</link>
      <description>Trigger: This episode contains a death penalty against the mother and son accused of killing my mother's baby brother. The first part of the episode I share my experience in getting equipment to assist my mother in her day-to-day functions. I explore how not knowing what I needed and where is the best place to get it was difficult. In the second half of the episode, I share a chapter about my mother's experience when those accused of killing her brother were executed. The chapter explores the closure her family expected didn't materialize with the death of the accused.  Their pain remained even after what her father viewed as the "city's revenge."

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-8-The-Power-of-the-Attorney-e2dkk7i</link>
      <description> First part of this episode I share, how important it is to have a  power of attorney for my mother's both finances. This comes up as my mother makes a risk financial decision. In order to protect her, I needed to have a power of attorney signed by her before her cognitive ability diminished. In the second part of the story, I share my mother's story as her family became a victim of one sided justice system. The people that supposedly kidnapped and killed her brother were found guilty and punished, but the family did not feel like they got justice.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-7-A-Tax-Break-e2dkk7n</link>
      <description>The fist half of the episode, I share my struggles in getting a tax break for the cost of my mother's care. I talk about how things made no sense. Still I had to take specific steps I took to get what I was eligible for as a caregiver to my mother.  The second half of the episode tells my mother's story as her father tries to see to it that the people that killed his child would pay a price.  Even though staying in the camp after the rest of the villagers left was hard, he stayed behind for the court proceedings.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-5-Caregiver-Conundrum-e2dkk7k</link>
      <description>Trigger Warning: This episode contains the loss of a child and the grief that followed. In the first half of this episode,  I share the challenges I face in trying to find a caregiver for my mother during the day while I went to work.  My attempt to find someone that spoke her language in a city where there is not a large Somali community was very difficult at best and impossible at worst. In the second half of the episode I share my mother's story after the remains of her baby brother was found. Getting justice for her was difficult at best and impossible at worst.

      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-4-Alzheimer-The-Never-Ending-Alarm-e2dkk7o</link>
      <description>Trigger Warning:  This episode includes child kidnappingIn the first half of this episode, I share how my solution to keep my mother from leaving the house while we slept created a whole host of other problems. The alarm system I set up was great at first, but soon my mother opened the door every hour for the entire night tripping the alarm system. This brought all three units of the emergency services, police, ambulance, and firefighters, to my house on a nightly basis. 
In the second half of the episode, I tell the story of my mother when she was twelve years old. That was the year her baby brother, two-year-old Isaaq, was kidnapping. Her question of why two people would take a baby out of his father’s arms haunted her for the following decades.

In the second half of the episode, I introduce my mother as the person by telling story of her as girl growing up in a small village in Somalia and the stunning news of her family's leaving the village due to the drought.  </p><a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2103488/support">Support the show</a><p>#IAMSAHRABULLE<br>#AlzheimersAwareness<br> #CulturalTraditions <br>#HealthAndCulture <br>#DifficultChoices<br> #Resilience <br>#CompassionateCare <br>#MedicalChallenges<br> #Hospitalization <br>#PersonalDecisions<br> #CursedFinger<br> #Strength <br>#Support <br>#Healthcare <br> #FamilyCaregiving <br> #PatientAdvocacy <br>Do not forget to follow, listen, like, and share. </p>

      <title>Episode 3: Caregiver Question: Missing or Stolen</title>
      <link>https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fartumo6/episodes/Episode-3-Caregiver-Question-Missing-or-Stolen-e2dkk6u</link>
      <description>The first half of this episode, I share the scary situations Alzheimer can deliver through the story of the morning my mother wasn't at home when woke up.  In the second half, I tell the story of that time her baby brother, Isaaq, was not in her father's arms when they woke up. What happened to him? Her mother's question, "Where is my baby?" matches my own question of where is my mother?
