Love these tips - especially the one about eating with the person who has dementia because it will prompt them to eat - additionally, you can be there to help them.

Your doing an excellent job of explaining this topic, thank you

My 92 year old mother has stage 4 Alzheimer's. She has lived alone for 30 years since my dad died. She is stubborn and in denial of her condition, thinking that she can cope. I organized home help for her meals, small household tasks and medication requirements. Mothers refusal of assistance, non compliant and insisting she could manage, meant that this service was withdrawn after 2 months. Mother will not consider meals on wheels or a ready meal delivery, due to her stubborn nature. She eats frugally and saves tiny portions of uneaten food in the fridge or freezer. Mother forgets where certain food items are stored- despite labelling on her cupboards- and often goes without basic items such as potatoes. Her condition deteriorates weekly and still she continues down the lonely road of this disease.

Thank you

This is very clear. Thanks

Great video, very informative! Eating together helps the other person want to eat. Been trying new things to see what works!

For late stages of dementia (Alzheimer's) no way this would be possible unless you can provide 24 hour home care. Therefore you are not living alone.

I DONT THINK A PERSON WITH ADVANCED DEMENTIA CAN KEEP UP WITH THEIR HOME LET ALONE TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. IM TALKING ABOUT ADVANCED DEMENTIA. I WISH THERE WAS NO SUCH THING AS DEMENTIA. I SEEN LOVED ONES JUST SLOWLY WITHER AWAY. I HATE IT 😢

I am 72 and getting very forgetful. I use Alexa a lot. I don't know how I managed without the reminders and timers.

What's the difference between normal aging and true dementia?

My aunt cannot live at home. I can't accommodate her in my home as I have my parents. My aunt has severe dementia. I'm getting her placed at a facility close by. Her injuries are falls and somehow suffered 3rd degree burns. Not by the stove. Can't figure out how she burned herself.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF LBD❓

What advice would you give some one with partial dementia?

I have 2 calcium deposits in my Basal Ganglia. How dangerous is that. Is it possible to have them removed?

lol thats a loaded question does someone actually live alone with dementia someones of yesteryear is always with them

this is such a dumb answer. how is the world a person with dementia is going to be safe alone? maybe in your "rich" world with bunch of assistance and people taking care of the person? my mother is in a nursing home because i start founding her every weekend with a new cut , burn, loosing weight or bruises, even is apparently she can "do" lots of things, a Home by her self and all the tasks that it takes was not longer safe for her as well is for most people with dementia.
