My mom, Karen, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s dementia in August 2017. Shortly after her diagnosis, my dad and I, along with my husband and two children, made the decision to sell our respective homes and build a mutigenerational house so that we could all share the responsibility of caring for her.
The challenges we faced were unique and often exhausting. Her capacities dwindled, yet her desire to remain a productive adult remained. It was difficult, if not impossible to find engaging activities that were appropriate for her level of cognition, while still honoring her as a grown woman with dignity and integrity; the activities that were suitable for her level of cognition were all designed for small children.
And so, Memory Mates was born, designed to be a Caregiver’s Companion, offering dignified, yet appropriate and engaging content for those suffering from cognitive decline, throughout all stages of the journey.
