The Patrick Madrid Show: October 22, 2024 - Hour 2

Patrick explores the poignant journey of becoming caregivers for our aging parents, beautifully framed by an emotional meditation and touching story that he shares. It’s a powerful reminder to cherish our parents and be there for them as they are for us. This heartfelt conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating this challenging phase of life. Fr. Jeff (email) – A family member having Alzheimer’s taught me some valuable lessons (00:42) Kathleen - My mom lives in a retirement home and hears knocking at the door but no one is ever there. She keeps a pyx on her mantel with the Eucharist in it. She said the priest said she could have it in there. What should I do? (06:08) Steve - Halloween: Do you think that the Church's technique to retain what is good and discard what is bad has been used too much in the Church? (21:58) Michael - Is it possible that the natural evil that came before the fall happened because of the fall of angels? (30:04) Patrick shares “Fear of Your Parents’ Old Age”, a beautiful reflection on an adult child taking care of their elderly parent (39:00) Christina - They told us to bring pictures of our dead loved ones at my son's school. We put food and drink in front of the photos. Is that okay? (44:16) Tracey - Last week I asked you a question about my younger brother who is having relations with a girl. I wanted to follow up with you about this and ask another question about the situation.
