For the last eight years, James has been looking after his mother, whose dementia makes her care increasingly challenging. As mother and son go through their routine, recorded voicemails provide a glimpse into the progression of the disease, underscoring the frustration, isolation and burnout that comes with intensive caregiving for loved ones.
