Teepa Snow(2)

Several posters here suggested Teepa Snow's videos to learn about dementia. VERY helpful, thank you. If you are just beginning this journey, I encourage you to seek out her videos on youtube. She has the ability to bring it down to our level so we can understand and tells us some things no doctor would ever think of.

    Yes, she is my favorite. Not only does she get the point across, but she does it with humor.
