Helping an aging parent can make you wonder about your own future care. If you're Gen X, now is a good time to ask what kind of support you'd want, what it might cost, and how you'd pay for it. https://bit.ly/4hPvLZN

Today is World Alzheimer's Day.
If you're caring for someone with Alzheimer's or dementia, you already know the parts nobody talks about — the repeated questions, the sundowning, the grief that arrives long before the goodbye.
You are doing something enormously hard. And you don't have to do all of it yourself.

Kristie Hurley has been selected as Amada Senior Care's - Caregiver of the Month for April in recognition of the extraordinary compassion, dedication, and support she provided to one of her clients and his family during an incredibly difficult time.

Kristie went above and beyond while caring for a new client who had recently lost his spouse and needed assistance with activities of daily living. With much of his family living out of town, Kristie quickly became his trusted source of comfort, support, and stability. She not only provided exceptional care, but also kept the family updated regularly on his condition throughout his illness.

Even while continuing to care for her other two clients, Kristie made time to visit him frequently during his hospital stay and remained by his side during his final days. Following his passing, she continued to support the family by helping with arrangements and assisting with his personal belongings and other needs during a very emotional time.

Kristie’s kindness, selflessness, and commitment truly embody the values of compassionate caregiving. We are proud to recognize her for the meaningful difference she made in the life of her client and his family. Congratulations Kristie. We are better because you are part of our team!

If I get dementia, I’d like my family to hang this wish list up on the wall where I live. I want them to remember these things.

1a. Every time you enter the room announce yourself. “Hi Mom- it’s Margaret.”
NEVER ask- Do you know who I am??? That causes anxiety.

1. If I get dementia, I want my friends and family to embrace my reality.

2. If I think my spouse is still alive, or if I think we’re visiting my parents for dinner, let me believe those things. I’ll be much happier for it.

3. If I get dementia, don’t argue with me about what is true for me versus what is true for you.

4. If I get dementia, and I am not sure who you are, do not take it personally. My timeline is confusing to me.

5. If I get dementia, and can no longer use utensils, do not start feeding me. Instead, switch me to a finger-food diet, and see if I can still feed myself.

6. If I get dementia, and I am sad or anxious, hold my hand and listen. Do not tell me that my feelings are unfounded.

7. If I get dementia, I don’t want to be treated like a child. Talk to me like the adult that I am.

8. If I get dementia, I still want to enjoy the things that I’ve always enjoyed. Help me find a way to exercise, read, and visit with friends.

9. If I get dementia, ask me to tell you a story from my past.

10. If I get dementia, and I become agitated, take the time to figure out what is bothering me.

11. If I get dementia, treat me the way that you would want to be treated.

12. If I get dementia, make sure that there are plenty of snacks for me in the house. Even now if I don’t eat I get angry, and if I have dementia, I may have trouble explaining what I need.

13. If I get dementia, don’t talk about me as if I’m not in the room.

14. If I get dementia, don’t feel guilty if you cannot care for me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It’s not your fault, and you’ve done your best. Find someone who can help you, or choose a great new place for me to live.

15. If I get dementia, and I live in a dementia care community, please visit me often.

16. If I get dementia, don’t act frustrated if I mix up names, events, or places. Take a deep breath. It’s not my fault.

17. If I get dementia, make sure I always have my favorite music playing within earshot.

18. If I get dementia, and I like to pick up items and carry them around, help me return those items to their original place.

19. If I get dementia, don’t exclude me from parties and family gatherings.

20. If I get dementia, know that I still like receiving hugs or handshakes.

21. If I get dementia, remember that I am still the person you know and love.”

ᴄᴏᴘʏ ᴀɴᴅ ᴘᴀsᴛᴇ in Honor of someone you know or knew who has dementia. In Honor of all those I know and love and lost who are fighting Dementia/Alzheimer’s.
