Navigating Life as a Dementia Caregiver

Dementia - Our Journey

Guidance to help Cope with daily Life for You and your Loved one

Why are you here?

To find a safe place to read, watch, learn, or just to find how to cope!

My name is Connie.  As a Dementia Caregiver since 2014, I learned to use meditation and spiritual guidance to enable a more peaceful environment for both Peter and myself.  I hope by sharing our journey, it might help you realize you are not alone.  Maybe encourage you to face another day or answer questions you might have. To know we are here and we care, sympathize, understand, and hopefully help you as you go forward each day.

Living with Dementia

His greatest fear was losing his memory

We met in February 1984.  So blessed that we had a full and adventurous life for many years.  Vascular Dementia - noticed the decline starting in 2014.  We are sharing our story to help others learn they too can survive.  It's not an easy road, but together all things are possible.  


Dementia 

How do you cope?

I won't pretend that it's easy.  But with a few slight changes you too can help yourself survive each day.  No one is perfect.  We all find ourselves falling apart, yelling, crying, fearful.  As long as we learn to forgive ourselves and start over, the hardest battle is won.
