  1. The holiday season can be hard, esp. if you are someone w/#dementia and/or a #caregiver for someone w/#dementia. #HFC has many support groups for #caregivers, inc. "Keeping Each Other Company: Caregiving & #Grief." We meet 12.17 at 11 am PT.

    Please consider filling out this google doc & joining one of these groups if you are feeling sad &/or lonely. Weirdly, sometimes talking w/people you don't know is easier than confiding in people you do.

  2. Digesting Food Studies (the CFS podcast)—Episode 104: Infant Food Security

    Whether you #breastfeed, feed with #babyformula, or do both, securing sustenance for newborns can be fraught. #Infant and #caregiver #foodsecurity is a multi-layered, multi-experiential reality, in the past and present. What will its future hold?

    This episode features Lesley Frank on the “first food systems” of infant feeding, Natalia Alaniz-Salinas responding to Lesley’s article, “Finding Formula” (Vol. 5 No. 1 of CFS), and Alexia Moyer on the history of milk, including its price, positioning, and propaganda. Drink up!

  3. @_9CL7T9k8cjnD_. This is very true. My realization about this came when looking at brochures and ads for #AssistedLiving homes, especially those advertising #Memory Care units. It was often difficult to know who had #dementia and who was the #caregiver.
