Please re-Tweet to raise awareness: When you are #caregiving for a loved one, making #selfcare a priority can feel impossible. For your own #wellbeing and that of the person you love, it is a practical necessity and a key to endurance. #Alzheimers #dementia #mentalhealth #quote

Here’s good natural ways to reduce agitation! Please don’t go straight to a drug for this, they all have very serious possible side effects!

Our sadness comes from what people with #dementia no longer can do, while their #happiness comes from what they still can do. However and whenever we are able, let’s embrace their abilities and their joys. (image: @KariJoys) #Alzheimers #kindness
