Bourdain Day

“If I’m an advocate for anything, it’s to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. Walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food. It’s a plus for everybody.” ~Anthony Bourdain

Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month

"There is no one single way to learn and process an Alzheimer’s diagnosis because it is a complex disease. Learning how to adapt to your loved one’s reality and engaging with them in a safe way is important. These books provide the opportunity to hear from people who have been in your shoes, as well as learn how they’ve gotten through it, and made the best of it. An Alzheimer’s diagnosis doesn’t have to be the end of the road, but the end of now and the beginning of something new. Learning from professionals, educators, mothers, daughters, sons, husbands, and wives on how to care for your loved one during this new time of life is the most important thing you can do." ~from the Brightwater Retirement Community website
