Let's Talk Dementia

I had the privilege of having Sherry from California as a guest on today's show.  She shared some uplifting words about her caregiving journey and how our podcast has blessed her.  I was so happy to hear from her!  I am happy to hear from you with kind words or, more importantly, a question that might come to mind.  And YOU might be a guest on an upcoming episode.  Write me at [email protected]

I wish pretending to be skinny made you skinny!  That would be wonderful!  Today I welcome a guest caller whose mother is scratching her face and making sores.  OUCH!  I had a few ideas to help the situation.  Write me with your question, and you might be a guest on an upcoming episode - [email protected]

 

There are so many reasons you might not should be eating microwave popcorn.  While that might be distressing news, you need to listen to this episode to learn more.  THANKS for listening.

General Hospital and dementia.  Those are two topics that have never come together in an episode of "Let's Talk Dementia," but they do today.  Hope you enjoy!

Studies have shown not eating meat helps to rebuild the heart AND part of the brain.  Listen in to learn more.  Write me with your question at [email protected].  I would love for you to be a guest on an upcoming episode!

I think today's "thought for the day" is too funny!

Candice called in with a question regarding her dad and the delusions he is experiencing.  I was happy to answer her question on-air.  Write me with your question, and we might have you on an episode - [email protected].

When someone affirms us and our work, our day is improved substantially.  When you affirm your LO, their day is improved in ways that cannot be measured.  Scripture says, "God is within her, she will not fall" (Psalm 46:5)  Reminding ourselves, our neighbors, the grocery clerk, your LO, and everyone you meet that God is within them and they will not fall can be a wonderful affirmation.  Call them by name and tell them they are doing a great job and are bringing joy to your day.

I had the distinct privilege of interviewing my friend, Ryan Monk, Eldercare Attorney, on today's episode.  He co-owns Monk Legal (www.monklegal.com - 803-594-4453), and he has good advice on planning for the future.  Write me with questions about dementia - carol@letstalkdementia.  Or if you have legal questions, I can refer you to Ryan!

 

A listener asked if I would discuss interacting with someone with early to mid-stage dementia. I hope this episode helps you, also.  Write me at www.letstalkdementia.org
