Ep075: Disability & Laughing, They Do Go Together - Fundamentals of Caring (2016) w/ Crissa Draper

**I FORGOT TO EDIT THE TITLE IN THE VIDEO WHOOPS**
Join Alex and guest host Dr. Crissa Draper (cehs.usu.edu/psychology/peopl...) as they discuss the the ins and outs of caring for a person with disabilities and the impact of grief in The Fundamentals of Caring (2016) (www.imdb.com/title/tt2452386)! The films stars Paul Rudd as Paul Rudd playing a guy named Ben Benjamin, a father looking to make a major change in his life, becoming a full-time in-home caretaker. His first client is irascible Trevor, played by Craig Roberts, who has muscular dystrophy and is confined to a wheelchair. The film was written and directed by Rob Burnett, based on the book The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving. This film is all about disabilities aren't necessarily a death-sentence, it's OK to laugh with folks with disabilities, and father issues come in all shapes and sizes. But let's be honest, we all want Paul Rudd to be our dad, right?
