I particularly loved reading how your mum has been enjoying music. My dad loved music during his years with dementia - even when he could no longer have a conversation he could still sing a song.

My mum does benefit from a routine in that she is more comfortable in her own home with her own surroundings but she also enjoys an occasional well planned "change" in schedule and activity. The introduction of music and singing into her life is a case in point, never a great focus in her pre-dementia life, she has developed a real love of music since diagnosis and enjoys attending concerts, clapping along to old show tunes and dancing in the aisles at the panto! If we had stuck rigidly to her previous routine we may never have anticipated this and we would all have missed out on a few joyful moments.Mumhasdementiahttp://www.mumhasdementia.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778521335346901337.post-74354464583885568342017-02-03T13:31:34.036+00:002017-02-03T13:31:34.036+00:00Thank you Julie.

I couldn't agree more we often see everything as further progression of the condition, rather than a subtle message for us Care Partners to shape up!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06503293154161000096noreply@blogger.com
