A Nomad Caregiving Life of Traveling and Running with Anthony Copeland-Parker

Anthony Copeland-Parker cares for his partner Catherine, who was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer’s ten years ago. Before becoming a family caregiver for Cat, Anthony who goes by Tony was a professional pilot for thirty-seven years, much of his career with United Parcel Service. When he retired, he started writing his blog called Running With Cat. Up until recently, they lived as nomads and completed marathons and half marathons while exploring 82 countries across all 7 continents!

In this episode, Tony shares the ups and downs of the nomad caregiving life, where they have found support while traveling, why Tony pushed the envelope and insisted that he and Cat live together in independent senior living, and what special requests he makes of the home care professionals so Cat continues to live a life filled with her personal joys.
