"Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it is always your choice." Wayne Dyer
As humans we tend not to see the wide range of our choices. As Dr. Frankl said, the only thing that cannot be removed from us is our attitude. Within any circumstance, we choose our attitude. We know caregivers who seem worn down and cheerless, and we know caregivers - with the same amount of burden -- who are lighthearted and positive. It is choice. Do we see our glass half full or half empty? This caregiving will pass and along with that will pass our opportunity to choose our attitude toward it while being within it. Today, consciously choose the attitude you want to bring to life. To caregiving. To the world.

This blog is written to provide information and support to persons who are providing care for someone with dementia. A first indicator of dementia is when someone has trouble doing a task once familiar and easy for them. If you have begun to be concerned about someone's memory or cognitive processing, help the person receive a physical exam, to include lab work, and an appointment with a neuropsychologist for an evaluation of memory and cognitive processing.
