Before a diagnosis is ever spoken, the signs are often already there—quiet, subtle, and easy to dismiss. In this powerful episode of The Art of Feminine Negotiation, Cindy Watson sits down with Kathy Chan to explore the deeply personal and often overlooked journey of recognizing dementia before a formal diagnosis. Drawing from her experience as a devoted daughter and mother, Kathy shares the emotional story behind her book, Someone to Watch Me Sleep: Navigating Mom's Lewy Body Dementia & How to See the Signs, offering insight into the subtle signs that are so often missed.
Together, Cindy and Kathy unpack how awareness, intuition, and early observation can empower families to advocate for their loved ones, navigate uncertainty, and approach these difficult conversations with compassion and strength.Through Kathy's deeply personal journey with her mother's Lewy Body Dementia, this episode sheds light on the power of awareness, compassion, and early understanding in navigating one of life's most challenging transitions.
