S1E3 Grandpa, Do You Know Who I Am?

May 11, 2009 Season 1 Episode 3 Documentary

The film follows five young children, between the ages of 6 and 15, as they navigate the challenges of having grandparents affected by Alzheimer's disease. Maria Shriver offers insightful commentary, sharing important messages with the kids and encouraging them not to feel responsible for their grandparents’ actions or words. She compassionately states, "We are all children of Alzheimer's," emphasizing that if visiting becomes too difficult, it's okay to take a step back.
