Episode 112 Oh my goodness! The actual goodness from this interview with Dr. Judy Butler is incredible. She offers up an End of Life Manuel for adult children of aging parents. I know it is something I think about and worry about myself. I hope to be as prepared as Judy can make me! She is a font of wisdom and common sense and I could listen to her talk all day. Dr. Judy Butler is a certified Pastoral Psychotherapist in private practice, who consults with, counsels and coaches Adult Children of Aging Parents, members of the “Sandwich Generation”, Caregivers, and Senior Adults interested in 2nd half and end of life planning. Judy is a member of the American Association of Pastoral Counselors, a certified Spiritual Director, ordained clergy, a speaker, and a teacher with years of experience and many thousands of hours of practical application. Her passion for working with senior adults and their adult children and caregivers grew out of her own experiences as a caregiver for her parents, congregational pastor for senior adults, and as a hospital chaplain for many years. After personally enduring the trauma, stress, and frustration of dealing with the healthcare/nursing home system she created The Guardians Gift in memory of her father, Harvey Hill who died 12/26/2018.
