I was scrolling thru my writing posts from ten years ago, when Ma and Pa were still alive. I came across the following pointers from Alzheimer’s Playbook for caregivers. Seems like good advice for living for all of us! The complete book should still be available thru http://www.alzheimersplaybook.com if you are in a situation of caregiving for a friend/family.
– get away from the house
– go out for a walk
– meet friends for lunch
– go to a prayer meeting
– listen to music
– work in your garden
– read a book
– take a nap
– keep your sense of humor
– take one day at a time
– pat yourself on the back for the good job you are doing
– get enough rest and eat right
– make time for the things you like to do
– talk about how you feel with others
– listen to your friends
