Thanks Evalina.
ReplyDeleteI think if I had one piece of advice to offer people involved in caretaking it would be find ways to get help. Caring for someone, especially someone you love dearly is challenging on so many levels, and can become overwhelming and isolating. So getting needed respite is important. I love that you're taking the opportunity of this A-to-Z challenge Evalina to provide some needed education and personal perspective.
ReplyDeleteI love that you're sharing these posts. Have you ever seen this blog? She's one of my favorite bloggers, and writes about care givers. http://www.thediaryofanalzheimerscaregiver.com/author/yyuabm/

It's good the news is keeping abreast of the disease and keeping people aware. Great articles!
ReplyDeleteI do think our elderly are short-changed - so many things (like music) can help in their care. ~Liz http://www.lizbrownleepoet.com

Thank you for sharing these link. My family is convinced the drugs my mother was given did more harm than good.
