Therapeutic Lies with Tender Care = VIP Solutions

Michele speaks with Sue and Abraxas Hudson about how they cared for Sue’s brother Joe in his last year of life with debilitating Dementia, using creative strategies—like the “therapeutic lie” and a VIP upgrade—to preserve his dignity and safety while also supplying happiness for everyone. The episode highlights teamwork, aging in place, medical advocacy, fall prevention, and the emotional toll on caregivers, offering practical lessons on empathy, patience, and putting loved ones first. VIP Solutions was born and has become a model of care, as well as a service that My Status Quo offers to all families.  Sparing them the unending, daily strife of 'being the bad guy'.

APS Scam Alert: Tech Imposters Targeting Seniors

In this episode Bill O’Brien, a fraud investigator for Adult Protective Services of Delaware, explains how tech fraud and imposter scams prey on seniors — from phishing emails and fake bank calls to remote‑access software, Bitcoin ATM schemes and the gold‑bar scam. He walks through common scripts scammers use, warning signs to watch for, and practical steps to protect yourself: don’t call numbers or click links in unsolicited messages, never give passwords, block and delete suspicious contacts, and verify with known phone numbers and bank branches. Bill also lists resources for reporting fraud (IC3, FTC) and advises families to monitor finances, consider early legal protections, and share information to prevent others from becoming victims. To report suspected abuse, neglect, or exploitation of a vulnerable adult or senior, contact Delaware APS at 1-888-APS-4302
