HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY USA - SURVEY RESULTS:
The right words can help us rise to dementia's challenges. Relish these valuable pieces of wisdom, gathered from grandmothers and mothers across the country.
A sampling of the wisdom shared from grandmothers and mothers across the country, according to a survey by A Place for Mom:
- “If the choice is laugh or cry, then laugh.”
- You cannot control what life gives you, but you can control how you handle it.
- When you've tried your best, you've done the best.
- Seek first to understand, not to be understood.
- Work hard and always have something for yourself.
- Don't give up. Remember your roots. Stay strong, and if all else fails, have a good cry (but privately)!
- Doing the right thing isn't always easy, but it's easier than the alternative.
- It is important to be kind to your family, because you are stuck with them forever.
- Stay in touch with people that lift you up and make you laugh!
- Love is what matters most in the world.
- Always have a good pair of red heels and red purse.

ReplyDelete"Alzheimer's disease and dementia can both be fought using natural methods. "
ReplyDeleteWhen my 86 year old grand-aunt developed it, I searched for a long time to try and find a way to help her cure it without expensive medicines, and stumbled upon Brain Revitalizer (Here's a good review of it: http://steamspoils.com/brain-revitalizer-review ) I'’ve been the primary caregiver for her and her dementia/Alzheimer’s for the past nine years. She was 86 and fading away by inches and by bit and pieces when I found the book. It was so unbelievably cruel and torturous to watch someone who was an excellent teacher and active lover of life be whittled away by this hideous disease a tiny bit at a time. Since she started reading this book, she has been slowly but SURELY improving her mental health each and every day. She can remember details much better now! I now HIGHLY recommend the book to anyone fighting Alzheimer’s and dementia- and the best part is that the book can be used by the sufferer even in the comfort of their own home.
