• Recovery room

“Ramona’s Recovery Room,” a weekly Facebook Live broadcast, was born from Ramona’s burning desire to share the love, wisdom and hope that shined on her after her mom, Wheezy, was diagnosed with dementia. “As I became my mother’s mom,” Ramona said, “I stepped into a frightening role that affected every aspect of my personal and professional life.”

An only child, she had to figure out how to be a patient, loving caregiver 24/7 and she had to face the eventual loss of her mom and best friend. Desperate, she reached out for, and accepted help. Using her gift for storytelling, Ramona shares lessons learned along the way as a caregiver for an ailing parent and a daughter who lost a mom and best friend.
