"My advice here would be to start laying it on thick. Do you have pet name for her? Honey, darling? If so, start using it all day long over and over. Layer up the reassurance. Put your arm around and put your head on her head. Use just a few words when you are in position. I love you. You look so nice. Its a great day. Layer it on. I know how you might be feeling. Don't give up. Be patient. And, just do best you can. I agree with Rachel work the smile and try to get one back. Connect." - Bob DeMarco

"My mother never really knew she was suffering from dementia. Even though she received the words directly from her doctor. I started thinking of her as deeply forgetful and that helped me stop worry so much about all kinds of things I couldn't control. As for me? I really didn't care whether she knew or didn't know. We were too busy trying to live our lives to worry about it." - Bob DeMarco
