My Million Dollar Mom

I have personally hosted over 15 viewings of this very moving film throughout the community and have witnessed the way it both moves people, educates people and help those who feel like they are the only one struggling with caring for a loved one with dementia feel less alone.

Ross's film paints a very accurate picture of the struggles of caring for a loved one with dementia and the real impact it has on their lives. It also helps people who need to better understand and who are just starting their caretaker journey.

Everyone of us has or likely will one day be touched by dementia and this film - which is exceptionally well made - provides an opportunity to become more aware and hopefully help people to be more understanding and better caregivers.

We viewed the movie at the Ambler Theater. My wife and I loved the story of Ross, and his mother who wanted to remain in her home as she became ill.

I'm also a filmmaker who has done a film about the ravages of dementia on a family, and felt this team did a great job showing how difficult it can be caring for a family member suffering this horrible disease. I was particularly moved by the performance of the mother, but the cinematography, and design were very good.

Kudos to all for creating a wonderful work of art and sharing it with the world.
