Neeyah Lynn Rose Stephens; "The Gifts that Come From Giving"

"To perceive this [caregiving for someone with Alzheimer's] as a loss in any way, is to really lose the gift of the opportunity."  

This is just one of the many candid insights from Neeyah Lynn Rose Stephens, a Bodyful Mind Educator, Nichiren Buddhist Practioner, Singer/Songwriter, and Personal Assistant for Conservation Photographer Robert Glenn Ketchum. Neeyah is also the daughter and caregiver to her 92 year-old mother, Annabelle, who has Alzheimer's.  But unlike many families, Neeyah is blessed with a supportive and empathetic village who share the caregiving responsibilities. 

Meet Neeyah, her mother, Annabelle, her brother, Charlie, and professional caregiver, Melody who openly share their evolving perspectives on being a caregiver that include gratitude, loving, healing, and what the experience represents to them.  (You might want to have a tissue at the ready!)
