Before the memory problems, confusion, and obvious dementia symptoms, many families notice something else first: money problems. Missed bill payments, unusual purchases, giving money away, falling for scams, or struggling to manage finances can sometimes be among the earliest signs of dementia. Research now shows these financial changes may appear years before a dementia diagnosis is ever made. In this episode, I explain why money management is often one of the first cognitive skills affected by dementia, what the research says about financial warning signs appearing up to six years before diagnosis, and what caregivers can do to help protect a loved one's financial security. Whether you're concerned about early signs of dementia, supporting someone with Alzheimer's disease, or already navigating the challenges of caregiving, this episode will help you understand what may be happening and what steps to take next. ⏱ CHAPTERS 0:00 - Did the money warning come before the memory problems? 2:10 - What financial warning signs actually look like 4:00 - Why managing money is the brain's first stress test 8:01 - Why these signs are so easy to miss 10:43 - Practical steps to take now #dementia #dementiacaregiver #dementiasigns #alzheimers #caregiving Get free weekly tools and tips in my newsletter, The Dementia Dose: https://tinyurl.com/dementiadose-podcast  Join the Care Collective: https://tinyurl.com/podcast-cc  --- Hi, I'm Dr. Natali Edmonds, a board-certified geropsychologist specializing in dementia care.

If your loved one with Alzheimer's disease is on one of the new treatment drugs, or you have been weighing whether to try them, the headlines from this spring may have stopped you cold. A major review from one of the most respected research organizations in the world concluded these drugs show no meaningful benefit. Researchers immediately fired back. And you are in the middle of all of it, as a caregiver trying to make real decisions for a real person. Your confusion is completely warranted. This is not a simple story. One headline says breakthrough. The next says it does nothing. But the full picture is more complicated than either side is telling you. In this episode I walk you through what the Cochrane review actually found, why experts are so divided on it, and the three questions you can bring to your loved one's neurologist to make a more informed decision for your specific family.

189 Cumulus: Reimagining Digital Memorials and Legacy with Architect-Founder Alexander Josephson Host Marie Betcher, a registered nurse and former hospice nurse, interviews Alexander Josephson, creator of Cumulus, a Toronto/New York-based digital memorial platform designed as an immersive "memory cloud" where families can store and experience photos, videos, notes, and other legacy content in VR-accessible spaces, with mapping for gravesites or ash scatterings. Josephson shares how repeated family encounters with death—his grandparents' passing, his grandmother's Lewy body dementia, and his father's cancer, chemotherapy, and near-fatal COVID ICU stay—inspired him to build a trusted digital "place" for remembrance beyond gravestones or genealogy. He explains collaboration features, admin controls, next-of-kin account transfer, pricing tiers, and plans for a perpetuity trust, noting current users and rollout to funeral homes and cemeteries.

Have you noticed your loved one with dementia seems like a completely different person every evening? The confusion, the agitation, the restlessness — and then the nights when they're up convinced it's morning — it's exhausting in a way that's hard to put into words. It is not something you caused or something you missed. New research published in December 2025 finally gives us a neurological explanation for why dementia gets worse in the evening, and it has nothing to do with what you are doing. In this episode I walk you through what the science reveals, what actually helps, and what tends to make it harder.

Making caregiving decisions is hard in a way most people around you won't understand. The stakes are real. The information is incomplete. And somewhere in the back of your mind, you're already afraid of being wrong. If you've been circling a decision for weeks — or months — and still can't seem to make a move, your brain isn't broken. There are five specific thought patterns that make caregiving decisions feel nearly impossible, and once you can name them, something shifts.

Prodromal autonomic dysfunction has emerged as an important area of research in understanding Lewy body diseases, including Parkinson's disease, and dementia with Lewy bodies. Dr. Michelle Matarazzo sits down with three experts in the field, Dr. Abhimanyu Mahajan, Dr. Alison Yarnall, and Dr. David Goldstein to discuss the current evidence behind various disturbances and how they may precede classic motor and cognitive symptoms, such as cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, urinary, and thermoregulatory disturbances. Together they discuss how these early non-motor manifestations may be considered integral features of the disease process. Read the Scientific Issue on this topic.

Being accused of stealing by the person you are giving everything to is one of the most quietly devastating things that happens in dementia caregiving. It does not just feel unfair. It strikes at your identity, your dignity, and the relationship you had before all of this. And because it can happen over and over, with no memory that it happened before, many caregivers absorb these accusations alone, without ever really being told why it happens or what they can actually do. There is a neurological reason for this. And it has nothing to do with how your loved one truly feels about you. In this episode I walk you through what is happening in the dementia brain that causes stealing accusations, why the instinct to defend yourself almost always backfires, and four specific things you can try the next time it happens.

A new Alzheimer's blood test was just approved by the FDA and it changes everything about how families get answers. For years, confirming Alzheimer's disease meant expensive brain scans or invasive procedures most people couldn't access. Now a simple blood draw can detect Alzheimer's markers in the body... up to 3 to 4 years before symptoms even begin.

Do they even care anymore? They do. And what's happening is not what it looks like.

Bathroom challenges are one of the most common, and least talked about, parts of dementia caregiving. You've tried asking. You've tried reminding. You've tried everything. And it still isn't working. This isn't defiance. It isn't stubbornness. What's happening in the brain is making the bathroom one of the hardest spaces for someone with dementia to navigate. The bathroom requires more brain systems working together than almost any other room in the home.  In this episode I walk through the most common reasons people with dementia struggle with the bathroom — and what you can do about it.

Parkinson's disease begins decades before symptoms appear — and by the time tremors start, brain changes have already been unfolding for years.In this episode of Research Renaissance, host Deborah Westphal speaks with Dr. Zachary Sorrentino, neurosurgeon, physician-scientist, and 2025 Toffler Scholar at the University of Florida. Dr. Sorrentino explains how misfolded proteins like alpha-synuclein spread through the brain, how deep brain stimulation helps restore movement, and why preventing dementia in Parkinson's patients may be the next major frontier.Drawing from both the operating room and the research lab, Dr. Sorrentino shares how his team analyzes proteins directly from surgical tools used in living patients — offering unprecedented insight into disease progression.This is a powerful conversation about aging, brain vulnerability, precision therapies, and the human side of neurosurgery.

Various Types of Dementia This week on PodcastDX, we're stepping into the complex world of dementia—not as a single diagnosis, but as a family of conditions that affect memory, thinking, behavior, and independence in different ways. We'll introduce the most common types of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, and mixed dementia, where more than one process—often Alzheimer's plus vascular changes—are happening in the brain at the same time. We'll also touch on less common causes, such as dementia related to Parkinson's disease, normal pressure hydrocephalus, repeated head injury, and certain infections or genetic conditions, and talk about why getting the right type matters for treatment, planning, and support. ​ Key Takeaways Dementia is an umbrella term, not just Alzheimer's. The "big five" you'll hear about are Alzheimer's, vascular, Lewy body, frontotemporal, and mixed dementia. Understanding the type of dementia can guide better care, expectations, and resources for families.

Opublikowane na koncie prezydenta USA wspaniałe dzieło przedstawiające go jako Jezusa Uzdrawiającego jest pełne wzruszającej symboliki. Donald Trump jako Jezus, leczy leżącego mężczyznę, poprzez nałożenie prawej ręki na głowę ofiary. Z ręki lewej wybiegają ożywcze promienie dobra. Pierwsze co rzuca się w oczy to skromność prezydenta Trumpa, który kazał się przedstawić bez aureoli. Postać Trumpa-Jezusa otaczają symbole boskości, czyli żołnierze jako anioły ICE, widzimy wpatrzone z uwielbieniem w postać prezydenta modlącą się kobietę, pielęgniarkę, weterana i weterana z brodą. Wokół fruwają samoloty oraz orzeł. Lewy górny róg opanował łopocząca, zapewne na wietrze flaga amerykańska. Symbolika dzieła poraża widza głębią dna, które ma drugie i trzecie dno. Te dna mówią nam, że nie liczy się wyspa Epsteina, czy Lolita Ekspress, liczy się pierwsze przyjście na ziemię uosobienia Jezusa, który jest lekarstwem na zło uosabiane przez leżącego mężczyznę. Scena jednoznacznie wskazuje, że skoro prezydent leczy, to sam jest zdrowy. I dobry. I skromny.

183 Creating Digital Legacies with Reflekta AI (with Grief Specialist Dawn DeLaloye) Hospice Explained host and former hospice nurse Marie Betcher interviews grief specialist Dawn DeLaloye about Reflekta AI, an intergenerational storytelling platform that helps people create a "reflection" of themselves or loved ones—living or deceased—by adding photos, voice recordings, and memories guided by an AI biographer. Dawn explains it takes about 20 minutes to start, has launched seven months ago, and already includes about 15,000 stories; listeners can try it by talking with sample elders Virginia and Arthur. She describes how reflections can preserve details beyond photo captions, support hospice and terminally ill patients by affirming they are more than a diagnosis, and may be healing for grief, sharing her experience creating a reflection of her father who had Lewy body dementia. Dawn outlines sharing and subscription access, and how voice can be preserved using recordings or a close relative's voice. 00:00 Podcast Disclaimer 00:29 Meet Your Host 00:42 Introducing Dawn DeLaloye 02:02 What Is Reflekta AI 03:42 Early Traction 04:04 Try Talking to Elders 05:23 Why It Was Founded 07:05 Legacy for Hospice 07:34 Creating After Death 10:21 Setup Time and Prompts 11:50 Healing Through Story 13:53 Everyone Has a Story 16:13 Sharing and Subscription 18:07 Meaning at End of Life 22:11 Preserving a Loved Voice 24:49 Final Thoughts and Wrap https://reflekta.ai/   If you want to help, you can donate to help support Hospice Explained at the Buy me a Coffee link   https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Hospice  Hospice Explained Affiliates & Contact Information Buying from these Affilite links will help support this Podcast.  Maire introduces a partnership with Suzanne Mayer RN inventor of the  cloud9caresystem.com,  When patients remain in the same position for extended periods, they are at high risk of developing pressure injuries, commonly known as bedsores.

The number one mistake dementia caregivers make is waiting.  Waiting until things get harder. Waiting for the right moment. Waiting until they feel like they really need support. And it makes complete sense why. When difficulty builds slowly, your brain adapts. What felt overwhelming six months ago becomes your new normal. And before long, you stop being able to accurately measure just how much your life has changed.  But here is what I want you to hear. The moment things feel manageable is not the least important time to get support. It is one of the most important.  In this episode I explain exactly why our brains convince us to wait, why getting support early makes such a meaningful difference, and what you can do right now even if things feel okay. You don't have to be drowning to deserve support.  → Join the Care Collective: https://tinyurl.com/re-sales-podcast  If you'd like to see this episode on video, you can hop on over to my YouTube channel here.

La Liga is back! Join Román de Arquer (@Aeroslavee) and Harry Gillies as they review the latest round of fixtures from Spain's top flight. Is the title race over? As Real Madrid lost in Mallorca, and Barcelona snatched a 2-1 win away at Atleti, the Catalan giants now have a seven point lead over Los Blancos. We discuss if the two Madrid clubs will now turn all of their attention to the Champions League, something Simeone seemed to suggest against Barça, leaving Julián Alvarez and Ademola Lookman on the bench. The league winner might be a certainty, but the race for the European places is gets more exciting with every week. We discuss the parallels between Real Betis and Celta, as both clubs are fighting for the same goals. Celta deployed some beautiful football away in Valencia, showing once again the fearless play style of Claudio Giráldez. Real Sociedad and Getafe have also greatly impressed and are well in the hunt to qualify for Europe. As for the bottom of the table, we discuss the stark reality for Sevilla fans that the seven-time Europa League winners get relegated, with Mallorca and Alavés putting in better performances in the fight against the drop. We also spare a thought for Real Oviedo, where it might be a case of too little too late for the Asturian side. And as always, thanks for listening and subscribing! Hosted on Acast.

Sudden decline in dementia is one of the scariest things a caregiver can witness. One day they were walking. One day they were talking. And then almost overnight, they weren't. Most caregivers in this moment think they missed something. Or that this is just the next stage. But sudden dramatic changes are not typically how dementia progresses. And knowing the difference between expected progression and a medical red flag could change everything for your loved one right now. Gradual change fits dementia. Sudden change requires investigation. In this episode I walk you through the most common medical causes of sudden decline in dementia, how to tell the difference, and exactly what to say when a doctor tells you it's just the dementia.

В новия епизод на Ratio Weekly Петко и Никола Кереков се гмуркат в науката за деменциите – от най-разпространената форма, болестта на Алцхаймер, до по-рядко обсъждани състояния като съдовата деменция, деменцията с телца на Леви и фронтотемпоралната деменция. Говорят за това какво всъщност се случва в мозъка – от натрупването на неправилно нагънати протеини и загубата на невронни връзки до последиците от инсулти и нарушено кръвоснабдяване. В епизода става дума и за генетичните фактори, включително ролята на гена APOE при риска от Алцхаймер, както и за това защо различните видове деменция често се бъркат една с друга. Разглеждат се и характерните симптоми – от проблеми с паметта и ориентацията до промени в поведението, езика и личността – които показват колко различно може да изглежда когнитивният спад. Представяне на гостите: Д-р Дияна Бележанска е специалист по неврология в Клиниката по неврология към УМБАЛ “Александровска”. Асистент е в Медицинския университет в София. Придобива научна степен “доктор” след защита на дисертационен труд на тема: “Невропсихологични, невроизобразяващи и ликворни биомаркери за болест на Алцхаймер и сродни заболявания”. Основните ѝ интереси са в областта на невродегенеративните заболявания, протичащи с паметови нарушения. Бойко Неов е молекулярен биолог и д-р по паразитология с разнообразни интереси във всички сфери на науката.

This important Dementia 101 episode breaks down some of the “basics” of dementia, and guides us through the touching experiences of someone supporting a loved one. Guest Alexandra Aguzzi, who cares for her mom Anna, shares candid insights into her life as the caregiver of someone living with dementia, and reflects on moments along her and her mom's journey. Then neuroscientist, clinical neurologist and associate Professor in the Division of Neurology at the University of Alberta, Dr. Valerie Sim, helps us make sense of several major dementia diseases, including those affecting lex's mother. Visit us at defydementia.org. Our Guests: Alexandra Aguzzi, a retired civil servant, is the main caregiver to her mom, Anna Aguzzi. Early in life, Anna picked up a paintbrush and transformed a hobby into a life's passion, becoming a successful painter. Alexandra and Anna now enjoy spending time together at Baycrest, where Anna has been a resident for six years, following a diagnosis of Alzheimer's with Lewy body dementia. Dr. Valerie Sim is a neuroscientist, clinical neurologist, and Associate Professor in the Division of Neurology at the University of Alberta, as well as a scientist at the University's Centre for Prions and Protein Folding Diseases. Her research has explored dementia at many levels: from the misfolding of proteins in a tube, to growing slices of brain in a dish, to human diagnosis and treatment trials. She cares for people living with a variety of neurological disorders, including dementia, and teaches medical students and residents how to diagnose and help people living with complex neurological problems.

In this episode, Trissell Hutchinson discusses exercise cueing strategies tailored to different subtypes of dementia. The conversation covers the four most common subtypes: Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Each subtype is explored in terms of its characteristics, symptoms, and specific cues that can enhance patient care and therapy outcomes. The importance of understanding these differences is emphasized to provide effective support for individuals with dementia.   00:00Understanding Dementia: An Overview 02:23Alzheimer's Disease: Key Characteristics and Cues 04:46Vascular Dementia: Variability in Symptoms and Cues 06:11Lewy Body Dementia: Processing and Emotional Support 11:49Frontotemporal Dementia: Behavior and Language Variants   Original published on PTonICE Jan 21 2026 

Matt delves into the world of REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD), a condition at the frontiers of sleep science. Normally, the brain dreams while atonia paralyzes the body in a neural magic act that is managed by brainstem nuclei activating inhibitory "brakes" in the spinal cord. When this circuit fails, the motor system remains active, enacting nightmares in real-time.RBD is hazardous - 10% of patients sustain injuries requiring medical intervention or hospitalization. It is a prodromal synucleinopathy where misfolded proteins erode the brain's architecture and 50% of patients develop Parkinson's or Lewy body dementia within a decade. Matt concludes by noting that new skin biopsy biomarkers like Syn-One now offer hope for early detection.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.One of today's sponsors, LMNT, offers a science-based electrolyte drink with no sugar or artificial ingredients.

I just finished interviewing Dr. David Coughlin for this week's Neurology Podcast. For today's Neurology Minute, I'm hoping you can tell us the main points of your paper. Dr. David Coughlin: The main points of this paper in my mind is that α-Synuclein seed amplification assays from cerebrospinal fluid samples is useful in confirming the presence of synuclein pathology in people with clinically suspected dementia with Lewy bodies. But also that, for people who have synuclein positivity, that the presence of Alzheimer's disease mixed pathology is associated with a worse cognitive progression over time. Dr. Greg Cooper: Thank you Dr. Coughlin, for that summary and for all of your work on this topic. Please check out this week's podcast to hear the full interview and read the full article published in Neurology, CSF α-Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays and Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers in Dementia with Lewy Bodies.

Many patients will affirm seeing clouds shaped like animals or other similar phenomena, which is why confirming pareidolia (seeing meaningful images in meaningless visual stimuli) is such a tricky symptom in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). While it may not be exclusive to DLB, placing such symptoms in the context of "the company it keeps" is a key method to narrowing down the diagnosis. The Editors' Choice paper for the February 2026 issue of Practical Neurology is a practical guide to the clinical diagnosis and management of DLB. Authors Dr. Sarah Fullam¹ ² and Dr. Seán O'Dowd¹ ³ join PN podcast editor Dr. Amy Ross Russell to discuss their work. They describe the importance of the initial examination, from the patient's gait to difficulties in word retrieval. They also touch on challenges in the use of biomarkers, which drugs may be helpful, and how to advise patients and their carers.

Is dementia the same thing as Alzheimer disease? Not exactly, and that difference can matter a lot when new symptoms show up.In this episode, Teepa Snow and Greg Phelps explain that dementia is an umbrella term and Alzheimer disease is one specific type of dementia under that umbrella. They then discuss the way that each form of dementia, with its specific pattern of brain change, can result in different real-life challenges—such as how visual hallucinations and frequent falls are far more common in some forms (like Lewy body dementia) and why sudden hallucinations in someone diagnosed with Alzheimer dementia may be a cue to look for something else that may be going on (illness, medication issues, etc.). In this episode, you'll learn:• What dementia means—and why it's not one single diagnosis• The basics of what's often typical in Alzheimer patterns over time • Why hallucinations, delusions, and sudden body changes can be important to noticeWant a deeper dive beyond today's episode? Watch Teepa's Understanding Different Dementias (12-part recorded series) to learn common patterns, changes to notice, and how your approach can shift based on the type of dementia.This podcast is educational and not medical advice.

When a patient says, "I biffed the car," how should that be translated? Puzzles like this represent the gap between description and diagnosis, and are a critical part of neurological practice. In this podcast for the February 2026 issue of Practical Neurology, editors Phil Smith and Geraint Fuller take turns decoding some of the mysteries of everyday neurology. They cover dementia with Lewy bodies, osteoporosis and fracture risk, and anxiety and depression in epilepsy patients, as a sample of some of the published work in the latest journal. There's also a guide to the latest stroke rehabilitation guidelines, freezing of gait, and a farewell to a 'nom de plume'.

Dave opens with a deeply personal and emotional tribute to Linda's father, Tony, who recently passed after a long battle with Lewy body dementia, and other ailments. He shares heartfelt memories of Tony's exceptional character—his strength, kindness, love of family, rock 'n' roll roots, teaching career, and unwavering positivity—reflecting on how Tony's compassion and support played a huge role in Dave's own recovery and relationship with Linda. The episode also touches on recent losses (Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead and actor James Ransone from The Wire), with Dave offering a half-hearted amend to Weir, pondering the future of Dead & Company, and urging listeners to reach out if struggling with depression. He then replays his powerful, candid interview with Alec Baldwin, where Alec gets brutally honest about his 40 years of sobriety, wild 80s cocaine-and-alcohol-fueled days in New York and LA, the terrifying overdose that led to his bottom, finding AA as his new “family,” the spiritual shift that kept him sober, and how the program carried him through massive personal and public storms (including his divorce and the Rust tragedy).

Acting out dreams during sleep is an early warning sign of Parkinson's or dementia with Lewy bodies, offering a window for early detection and prevention Advanced MRI scans now reveal that your brain's waste-clearing system slows down years before symptoms like tremors, stiffness, or memory loss appear One study found that people with impaired brain waste clearance were more likely to develop Parkinson's, while another discovered that excess fluid between brain cells predicted future dementia These findings show that subtle changes in brain fluid balance — not just loss of dopamine or brain shrinkage — predict who develops neurodegenerative disease and how fast it progresses Supporting your brain's "cleaning system" through deep sleep, regular movement, hydration, and toxin avoidance helps protect memory, balance, and mental clarity for life
