Alzheimer's Speaks

Lori La Bey, host of Alzheimer's Speaks Radio has an open discussion about love and dementia with author, Steve Bodansky. His latest book is titled, "Love and Alzheimer's." which is the story about Steve and his wife Vera.  Steve has a masters degree in Molecular biology and a Doctorate in Sensuality. He has been a sensuality and relationship coach for the past thirty plus years.  If you enjoy poetry you will also find some of Steve's poems he has written to Vera.

Steve discusses the very intimate topic about love, pleasure and how things change but can still be the same.  Although most people talk of the down sides of dementia, Steve also shares some of the benefits there are as well.

Cathy Braxton and Tami Neumann from Silver Dawn Training Institute talk with Lori La Bey the host and founder of Alzheimer’s Speaks Radio.  They know caring for persons with dementia brings a unique set of challenges and their Institute equips professionals and loved ones with a new way to communicate with these individuals: introspective improv. 

Known as "Dementia Raw" their approach is unscripted, unconventional and unapologetic. They deal with real-life scenarios and consider - 'the patients’ – vantage points. Their training is based on the company founders’ experience in long-term care.

Together they co-created the Dementia RAW Method. Collectively they have over 40 years of experience in the long-term care/aging industry.

Come learn and laugh with us as we discuss new ways to live graciously alongside dementia.
