#findingtherightwords — Public Fediverse posts

I'll be at the #Kensington in #SierraMadre on Saturday, August 19th from 1 to 3 pm with authors #SherriSnelling, a #gerontologist, and #TsgoynaTanzman, a speech language #pathologist. The topic is #caregiving and I look forward to sharing what I learned at #UCSF's #MAC (Memory and Aging Center) while writing #FindingTheRIghtWords (published by #JohnsHopkinsUniversityPress) with #neurologist, #BruceMiller, and what I have learned since its publication. #EndAlz

I am honored to be discussing #caregiving, with these other authors, at the #Kensington #Caregiver Summer #BookClub on August 9th from 1 to 3 pm in #SierreMadre. My focus will be on #dementia, specifically #Alzheimer's. I will share what I learned studying neurology for a year at #UCSF's #MemoryAndAgingCenter & what I learned writing #FindingTheRightWords, a tribute to my beloved father who had #early-onset AD, with the extraordinary, empathic, & brilliant #neurologist #Dr.BruceMiller. #EndAlz

#BruceMiller and I wrote #FindingtheRightWords for people with #dementia, their #caregivers, their loved ones, their #nurses and #doctors, including #neurologists, #geriatricians, and #psychiatrists. #narrative medicine cannot cure #Alzheimer's, but the power of #empathy, intense #listening, and #storytelling can help immensely. We are so grateful this reader thinks our book is helpful, even beautiful.💜

#DashaKiper writes about #dementia and #caregiving and identifying with the narrator of #Melville's #Bartleby. In #FindingtheRightWords, I write about identifying with Bartleby in that for a very, very long time, I preferred not to look at my father's #Alzheimer's. My dear friend, co-author, #neurologist, and empath #Dr.BruceMiller helped me look. He looked with me. My father died many years ago, but it remains extraordinarily hard and painful to look. https://lithub.com/what-melvilles-bartleby-the-scrivener-tells-us-about-memory-loss/ #EndAlz
