With more than 7 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s dementia, researchers continue to explore everyday factors that may support cognitive health.

A recent Emory University study found that higher vitamin D supplement intake was associated with better cognitive function among adults at elevated risk of dementia.

Vitamin D also plays an important role in muscle and nerve function and may influence sleep, an important consideration since sleep disturbances are common among people living with Alzheimer’s.

A doll. A blanket. A purse. A stuffed animal. Even a small everyday item they always carry.

When that object is suddenly moved or taken away, they may become anxious, upset, or agitated, especially if they cannot explain why.

A quick note regarding the Dehesa fire near us. We’re not in the evacuation zone. All forward progress is stopped for the fire. Just a bit smoke in the air.

When Person with Dementia Says Hurtful Things, Remember: It’s Not Always the Person Speaking. 💙

Hearing a loved one with dementia say, “I do not know you,” or push you away can be deeply painful.

But dementia can change how the brain understands relationships, communication, and what is happening in the moment. Hurtful words or reactions may come from confusion, fear, frustration, pain, or difficulty expressing a need—not from a lack of love.



Remember, when those moments happen, try to pause before taking the words personally.

Sometimes, connection happens around a table.

This morning, two new friends gathered for a game of poker. There was laughter, a little friendly competition, stories being shared, and those quiet moments where everyone was simply enjoying being together.😊

It may look like just a card game, but it’s really so much more.♣️♥️

When Dementia Turns a Moment Into Fear

As dementia progresses, the brain may have a harder time processing tone, movement, unfamiliar surroundings, or sudden changes.

A louder voice, quick approach, correction, or unfamiliar person may unintentionally make a resident feel threatened, even when we are simply trying to help.

This may lead to shouting, crying, resistance, accusations, or other reactions.

They aren’t necessarily trying to be difficult. Their brain may be responding to something that feels unsafe in that moment.

Sometimes, connection comes before redirection.
