The amazing @annabastino @TimeSlipsCreate helps us focus not just on what’s lost but also on finding meaning in what remains. Here in conversation with @carolhymowitz.
To talk to a loved one with Alzheimer’s, don’t ask them if they remember something. Get them to tell you a story, or sing a song. on.wsj.com/3vrG91g

We also have re-connecting with some people living with dementia and looking at ways to communicate. See @TimeSlipsCreate founder Anne Basting's How to Meaningfully reconnect with those who have dementia - youtube.com/watch?v=liqQDDfh… #diversealz

Let's do that last bit, about honoring the dead from Covid by insisting on and ensuring meaning and purpose all the way to the end of life - for both the elders and caregivers...thank you @carolhymowitz wsj.com/articles/how-communi…

With #COVID19 lockdowns, care homes for the #elderly became secluded, barring visitors and group activities. In response, #UWM professor Anne Basting's @TimeSlipsCreate organization helped people send 150,000 postcards to care homes. #UWMResearch

I recently led a @TimeSlipsCreate & Dementia Inclusive #Durham Creative Care session w/ elders with #dementia that explored the question: "If you could travel anywhere now, where would you go?" I created this postcard from a participant's response. #artsfordementia #artsinhealth
