Hi Everyone,

I want to share a resource with you that I just learned about. The expert is Teepa Snow. I spent considerable time view her videos and learned so much. It really shifted my mind to look the disease and behaviors differently. Instead of getting frustrated etc. I now have a glimpse into the struggles on my DH. Please take a minute to explore this information as it will really make a difference. teepa snow dementia - YouTube

    Thanks for sharing the link.

    Denise thanks for sharing Teepa Snow she is indeed an expert and her teachings focus on what is left, not what they don't have.

    So glad you found Teepa. I suggest that you also read Naomi Feil. It is perhaps these two women who were the pioneers in non-medical treatment .
