My Mom Has Dementia and Now I’m the Adult

In this stand-up set, I talk about something I never planned to be funny: my mom’s recent dementia diagnosis and my sudden new role as her caregiver. This material is still being developed in real time, so you’re seeing it in its raw, honest, in-process form. This is what happens when life hands you grief, responsibility, and emotional whiplash and you process it in public with a microphone. It’s part stand-up, part therapy, part “how did I become the adult so fast?” We’re laughing, we’re telling the truth, and yes, we’re still paying bills and making doctor’s appointments. If you’re dealing with aging parents, caregiving, or just trying to hold yourself together while life keeps lifing, this one’s for you. This is comedy, but it’s also real.
