CAREGIVER NOTE:

As you show patience with others, give yourself some grace too. This can be a difficult time for everyone in the household. Something old, become something brand new yesterday – difficulty in understanding how it worked and what would happen if he did this or that, though he was familiar with it not 10 minutes before. Celebrate the small victories as some days, they are the biggest ones experienced throughout the day. 2024 will bring lots of challenges as the dementia grows — stay the course. Reach out for help if needed and remember that you’re not alone in the journey.
