So basically, your memories are all fake? Spend your time more wisely man.

My uncle had dementia brought about by stroke. We tried placement in a nursing home but nothing pleased him. We noticed as we watched carefully that the dining room didn’t serve him more that a small bowl of soup because he ate too slowly. I was sitting in his room out of sight and heard the staff taking bets on the date of his death. Assisted living is simply assisted dying. We brought him home so he could have three meals and eat for as long as he liked with people who wanted to sit beside him. He got help from hospice with showering. We drove to parks and to the mountains, went to restaurants he liked. I miss him.

@Linda Hebert I think I was lucky to get to care for him. People miss something special when they don’t slow down to care for the old. The only problem is I lost my career and a significant amount of income. I am still trying to get back in the game but it is very difficult. I may never reach the level in competence I had.

I think the reason I would like assisted suicide is that it is so expensive and time consuming to die.

I worked at a nursing home for a little over a year and something I noticed with one resident who was very far along in her dementia was that she didn’t remember new people but she was much nicer to you if she saw you almost every day and you especially if you gave her something sweet to eat. Not sure if you know this, but one of the last things to go for someone with dementia is their taste for sweets. This lady had a big sweet tooth and loved oatmeal cream pies with milk. I always had one in my shirt pocket to give her. She was by far my favorite resident. But she could be so mean if she didn’t like you and she truly knew who she didn’t like. It was pretty funny to watch. I really miss her.

She kept asking me to put some coffee and coffee rolls out for her best friend was coming by after to church to play bridge. I hated watching her face when they would tell her that she’s been dead for 15 years. To save her the heartache I would set the table for three. A place for me, her and Ms.Catret. I would just tell her that she’s probably running late because she’s running her mouth after church. My granny would agree. I was a terrible bridge player but seeing that smile on her face made the lie I was telling less hurtful. I pray when I get older I don’t lose my memories. I don’t want lose a single one

My grandpa died at 72 - not young, but not that old either, considering he was pretty healthy and fit. (They changed his heart medicine and he died exactly a week later of a massive heart attack). It was a super shock losing him when we did but we always said it was a blessing he didn't have to see my grandma's decline. She was diagnosed about a year after his death (though my mom says looking back there were signs for as much as 5 years earlier and she thinks my grandpa was trying to hide it) and lived for another 15. She had a really slow progression and only really got nasty and forgot who I was in the last couple years, but I think it still would have been really hard for him to deal with.

Jered Alfredo :( that’s super hard. If it’s “not making sense” though it’s probably not Alzheimer’s. My grandma made basic sense until the very end, although maybe early onset has some different symptoms. It could also be something like my great grandpa - everyone though he’d had Alzheimer’s, but the autopsy showed he’d actually been having hundreds of repeated mini strokes. The classic test for Alzheimer’s is giving someone a blank clock face, the numbers, and hands (by which I mean like paper cutouts of all this) and asking them to put it together. For whatever reason Alzheimer’s affects how you can do that. My grandma could read a clock just fine her whole life but when asked to make a diagram of one she piled the numbers in one corner and didn’t know what to do with the hands; if you took him to a neurologist they would likely do this same test.

@Encysted

@@mokster5 The general term for repeated micro strokes is Vascular Dementia. How the term sounds insidious, is how the disease is: Slow paced, but irreversible. Every step is "well, I don't like any of what this is doing, but it wasn't as bad last week". 3 years later, you can't play bingo. 1 year later, can't put on a sweater. Another year, you are told that you're lying, and they want to go see their _real_ kids *right now* , and they're serious.

I didn't expect to cry today but here I am weeping. My grandmother is showing what may be early signs. For now it's just forgetfulness, less verbal restraint, stubbornness, but it gets bad in the evenings. She isn't her. It was worse once, when she was in the hospital with pneumonia, but that was from the morphine. Now it's just a daily struggle. I worry about her so much. She already struggles with mobility from arthritis, and she lives with my parents but they constantly argue, nobody in the household could be a full time caretaker either. It scares me for so many reasons. That condition is one of my biggest fears. I'm scared she'll do something she'll regret, say something she doesn't mean, I'm scared she'll forget me. I came out as trans to her two years ago and sometimes she still can't remember my name. Most of all I just imagine how scared she must be at times, how scared she will be. And to know there's nothing I can do, it hurts. I just want my grandma back.

I see a lot of comments saying things like, “it takes a very caring person to work in a place like this/with people like this”. Kindly, I disagree! Before I started working with dementia patients, I thought I wasn’t the kind of person suited for it. I thought that kindness and generosity were these magical qualities that someone like me would never have that much of. I was wrong! Kindness isn’t innate, it’s a pattern of deliberate, learned behavior. Anyone can be kind. You could be the cruelest person alive, and you could still learn to be kind. The same goes for being patient and for being empathetic. Caregivers aren’t superhuman; we’re normal people, just like you, who just happen to have a specific skill set. You could do it, too! You are capable of so much more than you think.

This is amazing!!!! I can't imagine how comforting this must be for any older person especially an older person with dementia and memory issues. It is true that my grandparents used to light up when they were talking about old stories from their youth and early adult years. I love this idea and I would like to see this style of day center open in many more places ❤️❤️

I love how her family tells her that “Town Square” needs her help. Sometimes, with Alzheimer’s, it is about the presentation. They resist losing their independence, and after a certain time, they don’t understand why they can’t be independent anymore. The key is kindness.

People with Alzheimers love to have "jobs" and things to do. Asking for help putting away the dishes, or folding clothes, or telling them you need them to come with you to the doctors, even if the appointment is for them. It is a comfort to have a purpose.

I work in nursing homes, and it is sometimes an industry with profit at a higher priority over care. I know a place like this one in the video has to make money, but it seems like they really try to do what's right for their residents. This warms my heart.

Mary is the sweetest, cutest old lady I've ever seen. My mom used to work at an assisted living facility as a CNA when I was a little kid, and she'd take me to work with her. I always loved being around all the lovely elderly people. This brought back a lot of happy memories for me.

This is so cool to see, I would have to think this is so therapeutic to all sides. The state of Elder care in the US is heartbreaking. They go from living their own life and having their own possessions to basically being stripped of everything they own and being reduced to a small room with bare walls and a tiny TV on the wall, being served mediocre meals daily. I know that I certainly wouldn’t want that for myself or anyone I know, it has to be miserable, not to mention for those that aren’t dealing with Alzheimer’s. I watched my great grandmother go from beginning stages of Alzheimer’s to not knowing anything in the course of 8 years. I could only think a place like this would have helped a little. I really hope for some real change in these types of care facilities, I know it will never be perfect, but it could definitely be a lot better. Not to mention that lower level employees are overworked and underpaid which drives even the more passionate workers away.

Even with insurance, they take most of his social security check and leave him a small amount, he’s only allowed so much a month in his account. Most families that have never had to deal with it before will be taken advantage of when something untimely happens and they have to put a loved one in a facility.

I had to throw out 3 years of my life from 18-21 because my grandmother broke her femur. She won a lawsuit but i could care less about that. I lost my grandmother... not to death but to immobility.. she became extremely nervous of falling over again. i was taking her to therapy for a year and a half. got her to the point of being able to damn near walk with a cane again at the age of 80+. my grandmother used to be the gran that would just drop by the house without calling and spend time with the whole fam. she was the gran that if she left her house she was guaranteed to come home with some sort of bag fix from any department store, didnt matter. We have now brought her into our home and are gonna sell her house and just take care of her from home now.. just to ease the stress that much more. currently gonna redo the downstairs bathroom and put a walk in shower since we would have to drive her back to her home and shower her there. but like i said we do this out of the kindess of our hearts and thats all i have to say about that.

Memory loss is so horrible. The last time I was able to see my grandmother before she passed away she looked at me like a complete stranger and my scrubs I was wearing because I just got off work and didn't have time or gas to drive home 2 towns away. It breaks me still when I think of how she looked at me. And when my mom was passing away I stayed with her taking care of her and sitting with her while she passed. A week before she passed she had forgotten all about me. And she called for my grandmother asking to make the pain stop over and over again (she had passed away at this point). It's heartbreaking beyond words really.

Although this is sad, she has a wonderful family that loves her and takes great care. Also I just LOVE that 50s day center!! Why isn't this the norm!? 😭 This is the generation that built a lot and taught us everything we know, they should have the best, most innovative care EVERYWHERE at an affordable price if it can't be offered for free.

My grandmother died of Alzheimer’s last year and my advice to anyone who’s family member is battling this disease is to get out old scrapbooks and photos from when they were younger. Get them to talk about the pictures and just listen. It makes them feel better

My Gigi has “early” Alzheimer’s and she has been battling it for 2 years. She’s so special to me, and my all time favorite person in the world! She looooves talking about being a little girl. And another word of advice - never tell them that they already told you!! Just listen and soak up the precious time you have with them 💛

Is it really that uncommon in the US for kids to take care of their parents? Where I'm from, it's a given. You're considered a lowlife if you don't care for your parents in their old age.

Malek Jendoubi most of the times it uncommon , people in the US tend to forget about their parents or grandparents a lot and it results in them dying alone or being alone. So it’s actually quite nice seeing a child take care of his or hers parents/grandparents .

@@wguid in the U.S. it is financially hard to do so. There is very little government help and these programs are very very expensive. Not to mention, not everyone has a relationship with their parents. Some people are estranged and never see their parents again. Not all parents are good, not all children are good. People get addicted to drugs, commit crimes, sometimes, even when it's your mom, or your daughter, you have to separate to prevent financial ruin or legal risk of your own family.

@@kevingliebe5607 Well most countries where most children still take care of their parents are still developing countries, so there's little to no government help that into supporting our parents. In fact, families have take care of each other because the government doesn't have any money to support its citizens financially.

My Grandfather passed from alzheimers last year. The care facility he ended up in was specifically for people with Alzheimers. Those people there knew how to rock. I would walk in and they would have Johnny B Goode blasting from the radio or some other song from Chuck Berry, Little Richard, or Elvis going full volume.

I remember in about 2002-03 talking to an old lady about how much she had been paying for a very old life insurance policy. The premium had been set in the 1950s. When I told her she was paying 15p a month, she asked "Is that three shillings?" The old money had already been gone over 30 years before.

God, what incredible staff they have surrounding them. This is beautiful.

I watched my grandmother, the strongest women ive even known, forget who i was, who she was, where she was, the people she loved, the places she loved, and every other memory she held dear at one point.. the woman who was a pillar of stability in my world became almost childlike.. she died not knowing who she was, where she was, or where the people she loved were... even tho we had been there all along. I cant think of a worse affliction..
