Caring for my Dad in his last chapter was such a privilege and I learned so much. Family care is hidden. Sometimes that isolation then makes things more distressing. #community and #familycarers need to see life with #dementia in the open, so we can all help each other. #connect

#AlzChat Our canary Captain Custard brought so much joy. Initially a friend and distraction for person with dementia. Then a help and laughter for everyone caring. Canary at Home Care Plan! And then even more years being a friend to grieve with. 🐥❤️

Some of you will remember my regular tweets during 2009-2015 when I was a family dementia carer. A key character in our circle of care was my Dad’s canary. He was due to live 6/7 years… he made it to 14.5! Sadly he fell asleep on Saturday for the last time… a job well done 💛

#AlzChat Reminiscing: Can be as therapeutic for you as a carer as it is for the person you care for. As a daughter I loved finding things out from the past that I wasn’t around for. It was good for calming my Dad down or distracting him if we were waiting at the hospital.

Reminisce with cooking as a form of storytelling…. lifestyle.livemint.com/food/discover/… #alzchat

@creativitycare @IRememberBetter Wrote & produced a booklet with my mum about her life before she married my dad, and while she could still remember details of her childhood & youth. Included old b&w photos. Gave copy to her nursing home & staff really appreciated the chance to get to know her better #AlzChat

Music is such a powerful connector and used a lot in reminiscence sessions... check out @PlaylistforLife playlistforlife.org.uk for ideas and how to build a life play list. #AlzChat
