I hope everyone had a nice holiday and here’s to a Happy New Year!

Heartwarming 💕

This moment belongs to @carrieblankenbaker_ 🤍 She captured something incredibly sacred… a 25-year-old grandson playing the music his 90-year-old grandfather still knows… and still sings. Dementia may take many things, but music has a way of reaching places memory can’t. Every lyric. Every hum. Every smile. A bridge between generations…. still standing. Thank you, Carrie, for sharing this moment with the world. This is love, documented in song. 🎶

The Caregiver Support Group will take a break over the holidays and return W 1/7/26. If you would like to join us, please send a pm to me with your email address so I can send you a link. These groups are online and free!
Wishing you all a very Happy Holiday season! Stay warm 💖

There will be no Caregiver support group next week due to the Thanksgiving holiday. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!
Simple can still be meaningful 🩵

I am available for calls to support caregivers and family members when needed or if they are unable to attend a support group. My hours are W 10am-noon and 1-2pm and F 10am-2pm or by arranging another time. All at no charge! Call 9074636116, ext 116. Hope to talk with you soon!
