If you're seeing some changes... Or, "Am I overreacting?"

In previous posts, we’ve discussed changes that you might be seeing in your person.

You may be scared, What if it is dementia?  Then you might be thinking, What does that mean for us?  What do I need to do?  Will my person be upset with me if I share what I’m seeing?  And finally, Maybe it’s nothing – maybe I’m overreacting.

1)        The changes could be caused by something else

2)        If it is MCI or a form of dementia, your person may benefit from additional support, services or medications

3)        And knowing gives us a chance to make some plans – together with our person – and to put safety nets in place
