  2. ♥️ There’s always that one caregiver who makes everything feel a little less scary.
    A little more human. A little more okay.

  5. #Alzheimer's and #Brain Health Awareness Month is coming to an end. I spent the last two weeks in #France talking to #neurologists, #psychiatrists, #nurses, and #volunteers about #Dementia, #Grief, and #Narrative Medicine. So many people in France -- and around the world -- are working to understand #Alzheimer's, treat it, and help #caregivers. I also had the opportunity to go to Dax to the extraordinary, loving Village Landais Alzheimer. We need many more places like it: villagealzheimer.landes.fr/en/

  6. in honor of the first #LewyBodyDementia Day, here are the #LewyBody entries -- with short definitions to help readers, #caregivers, and people with #dementia, understand the #disease and the words used by #doctors and #neurologists to describe it, from the rather unorthodox glossary from my memoir, written with #Dr.BruceMiller.

  7. Support from #parents and #caregivers plays a crucial role in the #wellbeing and development of #transgender, #nonbinary, and other #genderdiverse #children. Studies consistently show that #rejecting or exhibiting #hostility towards these children significantly increases their risk of #anxiety, #depression, #substanceabuse, and even #homelessness. Tragically, they also face a higher risk of #suicide due to rejection, #bullying, and #victimization.

  8. Dad can't do his regular #HandExercises with left(antibiotics IV line is still on that arm) but insisted on doing his exercises with right hand. We did some bedside light stretches & leg lifts after.

    I have extra respite help until Friday. Then, we're switched back to 6 hrs/week respite support after; anything over that isn't subsidized & we can't afford it.

  9. The Chatathon was an amazing event. It will be available on youtube soon, and I'll post the information. I was so grateful for the opportunity to talk about my year of studying #neurology at #UCSF, how that was my own way of sitting #shivah, decades after the first, incomplete one, and how that year of reading #memoirs taking classes about #brain health, and hearing the stories of #caregivers gave me what I needed to write, with #BruceMiller, our book about my father's early-onset #Alzheimers.
