The recordings will be available on CDs and mailed home to recipients. According to Vrona, this age group, known as the Baby Boomers, normally cares for two additional people in their households, whether it be parents, spouses or in-laws. She knows of one woman caring for her mother and mother-in law, one of which has dementia. “This is an opportunity for them to see other similar situa- tions to theirs and know they are not alone,” Vrona said. “They can get tips, which will hopefully help reduce their stress lev-
