Maybe a good idea, or several, here
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
We are not entirely convinced that these loving activities (they are loving and they sound loving) will be a good fit for our parents. We'll give them a try. Certainly the activities (remembering old friends, remembering the war, making scrapbooks, touching different fabrics) are not going to stop the tide of dementia. The activities may be pleasant, that's very nice and maybe healthful in its own way. But we see that the activities are also quickly forgotten, and that's as disappointing as can be, somewhat punishing for the caregiver. Try it, see if it helps your patients.
Memory exercises that work

Mom and I have enjoy working through the activities together. The structure and ideas provide impetus sometimes difficult to come by when working with victims of dementia.
