As a family caregiver in Anchorage, AK, we bet you can think of a variety of ways to finish that statement – with things you’ve always dreamed of doing, but put in the back of your mind until you have the money, means or time to pursue them. But what about senior family and friends? Don’t they still have aspirations, hopes, and dreams they would like to connect with that "someday"? For caregivers, helping their senior loved ones achieve remaining bucket list items is such an incredible gift.
