Looking for care guidance in caring for my 94-year-old granny who has progessing dementia/Alzheimer’s signs but never been diagnosed professionally.
Your love for your granny is so sweet, and that love will help guide your care for her. We suggest doing what you can to make her feel comfortable and confident, focusing on her best long-term memories. We’re sending you a copy of “Second Forgetting” and we think the book will help and encourage you on your journey.
My 91 year old mother is resentful without cause with people in her social circle. She is having false memories that feed her anger and resentment. My father is her caregiver and is having difficulty dealing with her attitude with their friends from church. I’m looking for sources for guidance for him.
We’re so sorry. Behavioral changes can be a great burden to caregivers. Friends from church could be a great source of support if they are able to understand what is going on with their friend now living with dementia. “Creating Moments of Joy” provides real examples and practical advice. “Second Forgetting” is also filled with practical advice, especially within the context of a church community.
