We started noticing my mom’s memory loss in her early 60s. 🙁 It was a sad thing to watch; I’m just thankful she is free of it now! I’m sorry you’ve had several people in your family who have dealt with it as well. It’s never easy on anybody. If you mom has anything to add, I would love to hear her advice! I’m sure she is full of wisdom from her own life experiences in caring for others.

Bless you… I had two grandparents (one on each side of the family) who had Alzheimer’s, and I now have an aunt who is dealing with it. My parents also had a dear friend who lived near them. Over the years, I’ve watched as my parents gave such thoughtful care to loved ones, and I learned a lot from them. Your suggestions are great ones! I sent the Do Not Depart link to my Mom to see what, if anything, she might add. I couldn’t help but be impressed with the “stay in the moment” suggestion; it’s a great one no matter who we’re with! (Still learning that one…)
