Unfortunately, "alone time" is impossible for those caring for spouses (and others, if they are on the same premises) with dementia, and there is now no respite care. There may be dire physical and mental consequences from this. It is known that caregivers...
My grandmother always said hand work (knitting, tatting, embroidery, etc.) was slave labour, as you could never recoup the cost of making it. However, creativity is a pleasure in itself and any little recompense would be gratefully received. I used to knit...
My husband, 75 (is that old?), would have happily gone just before dementia stole his mind and body, but who is to say when that is and how he should be dispatched? I cared for him as long as it was safe but now we fund his full time care ourselves - no ...
Agreed. Any study based on self-reported dietary intake or extrapolation from rat and mice information should be looked at with suspicion. I taught students to critique published research papers and there are not many that really withstand scrutiny.
Ashkenazi Jews (i.e. those from Eastern Europe) are the modern Israelis and have not been in Palestine for 5000 years . Sephardic Jews on the other hand do have a place in Palestine, but they are also discriminated against by the majority. http://...
However - https://www.nzdoctor.co.nz/article/undoctored/people-dementia-obviously-dont-count Another growing area to be addressed sometime. The toll on the caregiver at home is as huge as that for any other condition and sometimes the caregiver has to cope...

My HOP card is exactly the size of my credit and similar cards, and fits in the pocket of the wallet designed for such. A friend recently had his old one replaced as it was delaminating, and made no comment about a change of size.
Please note - not every house, situation or season is suitable for solar panels. The energy payment will be gratefully received in this household (although we do have solar panels) as the house has to be kept extra warm for my husband who has Alzheimers ...
Nip over to Gull in Ti Rakau Drive - I had no problem filling at the self-service station this afternoon.
