    "Both Ends" thinking ....What a perfect description of what I've experienced with Ambiguous Loss. Being OK to grieve what is no longer a part of our relationship while thankful for what we still have --- and knowing this will change over time as the illness progresses. Thank you, Dr. Boss (and Emma for sharing this).

    Thank you Emma, and all of the Willis family, for bringing information that can help raise awareness for what it is like to have a family member living with dementia. This interview with Dr. Boss was outstanding. ❤️💜

    Wonderful video filled with caregiver information I have been needing to hear? Thank you Emma for your search for help and guidance for caregivers. Dr. Pauline Boss was excellent.
    A little info about me. My husband was diagnosed with FTD 2 years ago. I attend a support group monthly and have gained insight into this disease, and comfort and understanding from fellow caretakers who get what I am going through. I too have made the decision to accept this illness that I cannot change. My hope is that research will have a breakthrough sooner rather than later. Sending prayers to you and your family. 🤍🙏
