Dorothy would want you to know that the best thing you can do for your loved one with dementia is just be understanding. They know not what they are doing. Try to treat them as normal as possible. There is no need to tell them when they are wrong or correct them for any reason. When you do this it “belittles” them, some of them even stop talking-afraid to make a mistake.
Just be patience and kind and if you can’t do it- don’t- it will only make you and them miserable.
Peace & Love,
Cheryl Doreen
