Soup On A Plate – Granddads Memories

from Fading Memories: Alzheimer's/Dementia Support · host Alzheimer's Caregivers

The other day my grandpa took everything out of the cabinet he isn't supposed to eat. A bunch of bread, crackers, and peanut butter. Then he saw some soup that caught his attention. He grabbed a plate and poured the soup on the plate.

What this episode covers

His name is James and he served 30+ years as a Navy chief. Serving in Japan are where some of his fondest memories come from. Growing up her grandfather loved to teach her how to cook. They often made lunch together before going to the park or playing board games until her mom got off work. About 5 months ago (April 2018) he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. The stories he still tells are from the time he spent in the Navy, even if his words seem distorted. On this episode of Fading Memories I talk to a daughter & granddaughter trying to navigate their life while also caring for and protecting their Dad/Grandpa. There are lots of challenges learning how to handle someone losing their memories. Our conversation went from talking about Grandpa to sharing stories and advice. Hailey and her Mom were unsure how to handle some of Granddads emotions which came up in our conversation. It's difficult to lie but also difficult to tell the truth. Where does that leave us? Listening to this episode may help you answer that question.
