Long Distance Caregiving | Alzheimer’s & Dementia Caregiving

Rob Zukowski's mother, Elena, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and developed dementia as a result. Rob serves as the primary, long-distance caregiver for his mother - he lives in Manhattan and travels to upstate New York to visit her every weekend. With some family support and a dedication to his mother, Rob is able to perform his duties as caregiver - though the physical and emotional toll that family caregiving takes can be heard in his words and his voice.
