Lori La Bey talks with Steve Kosareff, a Los Angeles-based author and a passionate advocate for Alzheimer’s awareness and caregiver support. For twenty years, Steve and his family navigated the complex, emotional, and exhausting terrain of caring for his father, John, who lived with a rare, long-term form of Alzheimer’s disease. This deep personal experience inspired his newly released memoir, Something Like That: My 20-Year Safari with Dad’s Alzheimer’s, available on Amazon at https://a.co/d/0gDMLXJD.

Drawing from two decades of firsthand observation, Steve writes with a unique blend of raw honesty, practical insight, and healing humor. His mission is to break the isolation felt by millions of unpaid family caregivers and provide a voice for those facing the prolonged realities of dementia. As a local speaker and media guest, Steve offers families actionable advice on pacing themselves for the caregiving marathon, protecting their own mental health, and finding unexpected moments of joy amid crisis.
