Ty Lewis, a dementia practitioner, is caring for her mother Gertrude, who has Alzheimer's, while also raising her children. Lewis is part of the "sandwich generation," meaning she is responsible for caring for two generations. She has chosen to care for her mother at home, rather than in a memory care community, and shares her experiences online with a community of over 120,000 people.
Lewis has spoken with gerontologist Sam Cradduck about her caregiving journey, discussing the challenges of caring for both her mother and her children. Further details about her story and experiences are available through the Aging Untold series.
Lewis's decision to keep her mother at home was influenced by the fact that Gertrude was already living with them during COVID.
