Apparently kids are good for the brains of dementia-sufferers, my aunty told me that when we started visiting regularly when the kids were younger my grandmother would watch them playing and sometimes would interact for chats and things she was pretty sure that she was improving.
My kids are now just occasional chatters being teenagers so they prefer to huddle on the couch with devices after the initial greetings though they will watch movies with her sometimes if there's something interesting on.
Those pancakes look amazing.
Hope all your friends are okay :S did you leave texts if they're too busy to answer? They still might not answer the texts but it's always nice to know someone's thinking of you?
So far everyone I know is ok...But I haven't heard about my colleagues house yet. All the firefighters are fine. I went up to help with breakfast today, they all looked pretty tired.
Yes, kids and pets are good for dementia sufferers generally, I've heard the same thing...If they get off their phones for long enough I guess.
Yay good start. Seems like it would be pretty exhausting, fire can spread quick and easy but energy levels are much harder to restore and the number of people doing the fighting might not be changing much :S
They rotate the teams but yes, one never gets enough of a break to fully recharge I think.
