12: Navigating Travel with Dementia

In this heartfelt episode, I openly discuss the anxieties and preparations involved in planning a bucket-list trip to Switzerland for my mother who has Lewy Body dementia. I share insights on everything from ensuring a comfortable sleep environment and managing medications to meeting her daily needs and maintaining some semblances of her routine. At the core of it all, the message is about the adaptability and resilience required in caregiving, suggesting that despite the challenges, there is great value and enrichment in embracing these unique experiences with our loved ones. _______________________ FIRST TIME HERE?
