How has it been since she was admitted?

For her, the biggest adjustments have been cultural integration and accepting the reality that she no longer lives at home with family members. My mother has lived both in Europe—where she is from—and in the United States (New York City and Indianapolis), either independently in Europe or with family in the U.S., so this has been a significant adjustment for her.

I remain involved in her care, and both my daughter and I visit frequently. For me, the support, care, and stable environment she receives are very important, including the attention she was given during the two major, high-risk eye surgeries she had over the past year.

Don was born and raised in the Indianapolis, where his love for sports and discipline began early. He attended St. Roch Catholic school, and it was there when he first fell in love with football and track. What started as fun grew into a true passion, and Don discovered he was building character, strength, and confidence. ​

​In 1980, Don reached a huge milestone by winning a heavyweight championship. It was a moment he would reflect on often, remembering his years of hard work and perseverance. He also valued his education and had earned his MBA, believing the mind should be as strong as the body.​

​Today, Don still has the same passion for fitness and enjoys exercising, especially on the cycle bike. He is always encouraging others to stay active and live healthier lives. Whether through sports, fitness, motivation, or support, Don believes movement builds not only muscles, but the confidence and resilience that lead to a better life.

2. When did you know it was time to place mom?

Answer: My mother started to experience behavioral changes about two years prior to her admission. Her challenges gradually increased, including difficulty taking medications as prescribed, an inability to care for herself—especially with hygiene and meal preparation—and increased agitation. From being an avid reader, she stopped reading completely.

I was her primary caregiver, and our dynamic also began to change. Although we had always had a close and loving relationship, the stress sometimes created tension between us. Once her diagnosis was confirmed, it became clear that we needed to find a more permanent solution where she could live more independently, with the respect and support she deserves.
