Virginia and Steve are joined by Ruth Ann Rousseau, a caregiver and support group leader, to discuss the vital role that support groups play for dementia caregivers. Ruth Ann highlights how these groups provide resources, confidence, and community while addressing the challenges of participation. She compares online and in-person meetings and encourages caregivers to seek support, stay open to learning, and prioritize self-care. The discussion concludes with a reminder to persist in finding the right support system and advocating for personal well-being.

In this episode of Spotlight on Care, Steve and Virginia explore the complex and often distressing experience of delusions in dementia with David Sultzer, MD, the Clinical Research Director at UCI MIND and professor of Psychiatry & Human Behavior. Dr. Sultzer explains how and when delusions, such as paranoia and misidentification, develop in individuals with dementia and the impact they have on caregivers. He discusses practical approaches for managing these false beliefs, including reassurance, environmental adjustments, and structured routines. The conversation also covers available medications that may help prevent or reduce delusions, along with its potential risks. Resource: What Are Delusions?

Author Michael James and his wife Judy's life together took an unexpected turn when she was denied long term care insurance because she couldn't pass the ‘mini mental', the test given that revealed cognition issues.  Ultimately, she was diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment that developed into Alzheimer's. Michael, faced with this challenge, knew he needed to be thoughtful, calculated, and proactive while continuing to provide Judy with the daily care she needed. As an academic and researcher, he joined several online support groups and searched for books to help him navigate this new territory. Therapy: He observed in the support groups that many caregivers' downfall is mixing their emotions with responsibilities. Realizing he needed more than anecdotal help from friends, he found a therapist who helped him separate the reality of the present moment and need to seek answers to the practical day to day challenges, while also preparing for the future. Daily Care & Move to Senior Living: Michael talks about his strategy to integrate additional support and resources into their lives. They began with in home care (which she initially rejected) by starting with a couple of hours a week and by the time they reached 30 hours per week it was time for something different. The next phase was a day program that Judy enjoyed. When that grew to 7 days a week and a few other key factors at play, he knew it was time for her to move into the memory care community. Ultimately, multiple factors influenced this decision. Judy had become fearful of being alone and hallucinations had begun. Michael was struggling to get a full night's sleep and her incontinence issues were increasing. These were layered with safety concerns because of several incidents that had occurred, and he knew it was time for the move to memory care. Plan Ahead: Michael emphasizes the importance of getting out of denial and talking about getting older. He recommends to adult children not to brush their parents off when they want to talk about planning for the future and for when they die. We all need to be more comfortable talking about aging and death. He recommends not waiting until you are in crisis! Planning ahead will help you be successful because many memory care communities have waiting lists. Michael ended up writing the book he was looking for and titled it Dear Judy: A Love Story Rewritten by Alzheimer's⁠.  Visit his website: https://pineedenpress.com Here are the others he recommended in this episode.

The number of labels to describe different types of mental disorder has mushroomed in recent years. New categories include Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Prolonged Grief Disorder and Mild Cognitive Impairment. Many classifications have been created or influenced by a book called the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). Advocates of DSM say labels help people take ownership of their situation, provide them with answers, treatments and social support. Critics think it creates stigma, medicalises normality and leads to a glut of unnecessary and harmful drug prescriptions. UK based musician Jay Emme asks if labels help or hinders in everyday life and whether it's time to drop the terms ‘mental' and ‘disorder'?

Most of us have some idea what dementia is. Though we toss the word ‘demented' around as a put down, Dementia, and Alzheimers experienced up close is difficult to witness. In part why it is so difficult to watch others go through the decline is because much of it can be avoided entirely by adopting a Low Carb High Fat Ketogenic diet. If there was one specific condition that is most improved by ketones, this would be it. In fact, unlike other conditions that can be improved by a ketogenic diet, taking ketones directly for Alzheimers or dementia has become a gold mind for certain companies that are now in business of creating them. The market for both LCHF Ketogenic diet and for ketones is based on two truths, the rate of Alzheimers is at an all time high and will just increase, and Mild Cognitive Impairment is happening at a younger and younger age. Both demographics can be addressed fairly easily. Listen in to hear how we do that.Sweethearts Forever.

Implications for Cognitive Health during Aging and the Treatment of Alzheimer's Diseasehttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4937039/conclusion:Ketones are the brain's main alternative fuel to glucose and brain ketone uptake is still normal in MCI and in early AD, which would help explain why ketogenic interventions improve some cognitive outcomes in MCI and AD. We suggest that the brain energy deficit needs to be overcome in order to successfully develop more effective therapeutics for AD. At present, oral ketogenic supplements are the most promising means of achieving this goal.A ketogenic drink improves brain energy and some measures of cognition in mild cognitive impairment https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332575159_A_ketogenic_drink_improves_brain_energy_and_some_measures_of_cognition_in_mild_cognitive_impairmentEmulsification Increases the Acute Ketogenic Effect and Bioavailability of Medium-Chain Triglycerides in Humans: Protein, Carbohydrate, and Fat Metabolism. 7-2017https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29955713Conclusions: Emulsification increased the ketogenic effect and decreased side effects in a dose-dependent manner for single doses of MCTs ≤30 g under matching conditions. Further investigation is needed to establish whether emulsification could sustain ketogenesis and minimize side effects and therefore be used as a treatment to change brain ketone availability over a prolonged period of time. —————————COME SAY HI!!! —————————— Facebook Group about Keto: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketonaturopath/ BLOG: https://ketonaturopath.com/ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ketonatur

The speed at which dementia progresses varies a lot from person to person.  —Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP, FGSA, FAAN   How does Alzheimer's disease and dementia progress?   The speed at which dementia progresses varies a lot from person to person based on a lot of factors.    Tune in to today's episode where I'll talk you through the progression of dementia through the different stages and access two free resources that you can download: One on the 10 Warning Signs  of Alzheimer's disease and a Checklist of things your provider should check if you're worried about your memory or the memory of someone you love. PRECLINICAL ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative disease that starts with preclinical Alzheimer's disease which is age-related memory changes. Symptoms are usually noticeable, but not significant. People will report growing trouble with their memory, such as forgetting names of people they've known for a long time. Or trying to remember where they put their keys or their wallet – but in most cases they do remember these things later.  MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT   Over time, this forgetfulness may develop into a true mild cognitive impairment. At this stage, there's much clearer evidence of memory loss that the person's close family and friends will notice, but not other people. Biomarkers may show up on a PET scan or an analysis of the cerebral spinal fluid and the brain is not able to compensate as well. MILD DEMENTIA   The next stage is mild dementia which is a moderate level of cognitive decline. We can detect clear signs of this disease in a clinical situation and will have the biomarker changes. With careful evaluation, people in this stage often have trouble remembering different parts of their personal life experiences and may not be able to understand current events or have more trouble with math.   There's also a lot of denial that there is a memory problem and you may see less emotional expression, known as either having a flat affect or being apathetic.    MODERATE DEMENTIA    The next stage is moderate dementia. Memory issues are going to show up on a clinical exam. People living in this stage have trouble remembering important parts of their life, including their address, the names of their close friends or family members, their hometown, or what school they went to.    While they have trouble with recent memories, a lot of times, the major life events from their past are still retained, and they can still get to the bathroom and eat by themselves. But they would not be safe to stay at home alone.   SEVERE DEMENTIA   The next stage is Severe dementia. The person has occasional trouble remembering the name of their spouse, partner, or caregiver. They will continue to have a hard time recalling recent life experiences or events. And they will have trouble counting down from 10. We may see some changes in personality and behavior, trouble with sleeping and may begin to need assistance for basic daily activities.   SEVERE/ END-STAGE DEMENTIA   The last stage is Very severe or end- stage dementia where the person has lost all of their independence related to thinking, memory and control over their body. They are going to need assistance with eating, bathing and using the bathroom. They will become incontinent, and they have lost the ability to use and/ or understand words. They will become bedridden and begin to have trouble with chewing and swallowing food. When someone gets to end stage dementia, they typically do not live longer than six months.   Get your FREE downloads at https://melissabphd.com/  from the Blog page that goes with this episode or using the links below.   10 Warning Signs Diagnosis Checklist   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About MelissaBPhD   Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP, FGSA, FAAN.
