HOLIDAY MEMORIES

Here's hoping that you and your loved one with dementia are having a peaceful holiday season. Despite all the pressures on you and your family at this time of the year, it is possible to enjoy some quiet moments with a person with dementia. It's important to remember that while Mom or Dad used to love being in the middle of the huge family gatherings, this is likely to only make them feel more scared or agitated right now. Their damaged brains are unable to take in all of this activity, and they would benefit more from one on one, quiet moments of reflection and reminiscing about past happy holidays. Focus on enjoying those few quiet moments.
