In our Season 2 finale, we speak with our new friend Mitra. Mitra tells us all about the FTD journey she is currently on with her father Behrooz. Mitra's road to learning her father was ill actually started with her own health crisis, and thus began her search of what was wrong with Behrooz.

Mitra is a wonderful storyteller, and shares all about the fascinating life that Behrooz lived before his FTD diagnosis. It is one of the most touching father-daughter stories we've ever heard, and we are so thankful she shared it with us. You won't want to miss the very special ending... 

We'll be back with Season 3 on July 12th. Thank you to all who were a part of making this season a huge success - we raised awareness, we helped others feel less alone AND we tried our very best to always, always accept the good. Thank you.

Heather shares the story of her father, Ed, who she cares for at home alongside her mother.

In this episode we really tackle all the feelings around watching a parent live with this disease. Heather is wonderfully vulnerable and we loved having raw and honest conversation. We also loved learning about wonderful Ed -before FTD- all about his art, his teaching, and his love for his friends and family. Enjoy.
