Tips For Caregiver's

People with Alzheimer's disease frequently become more disoriented after dark or when waking. Leaving a night-light on in the bedroom may be helpful.

Common Connection

If you ever need to connect with other caregivers to simply talk or ask for advice, the Alz.org Message Board is the best place to do so. Recently, I began logging onto the Message Board and communicating with other caregivers like myself. It is amazing to see the number of new people signing on to the site everyday. There are days when the number of people seems to increase exponentially. The continued growth is a constant reminder that Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia are not isolated to a specific race, gender, or geographic location. At some point in our lives, we will ALL be touched by Alzheimer's or Dementia. The caregivers come from all walks of life and their locations span the globe - our common connection caregiving. I hope to "see" you there. Registration is free!
