Learning to Cope with Dementia

Dear Friend,

There are nearly 7 million people living with Alzheimer's
disease in the United States and over 11 million loved ones providing
their care. This is an urgent global public health crisis. That's why
I'm reaching out today in our final week of our $160,000 2X Matching
Gift Challenge.

Generous supporters at The Kahlert Foundation, a Maryland
based family foundation, have pledged to match every donation we
receive - up to a total of $160,000 - if we can raise the
same amount by August 16. Their gift will support Alzheimer's research
and programs and outreach initiatives at their local chapter, while
your first gift can have 2X the impact on advancing critical research,
strengthening advocacy efforts and helping to provide care and support
resources.

Living Well with Dementia: Social
Health

There's no cure for this devastating disease, but an emphasis
on living a healthier life can help prepare those seeking the
Association's help to live well and focus on what is most important to
them.

One of the most important things you can do is talk about your
feelings with someone you trust such as your spouse, partner, pastor
or counselor. Learning to express yourself can help you cope with
emotional responses and help those around you react in the most
appropriate ways.

We've gathered tips from people living with Alzheimer's on how
to cope with symptoms of the disease, including how best to deal with
the emotional changes. Here are just a few:

1. If you have rapid changes in mood or a short temper, be more
mindful of negative responses. Understand that your reaction is
caused by the disease.
2. When it comes to guilt, clarify why you have this feeling. If
you need other points of view, seek out your allies and bounce
it off them. Then make a clear decision and move forward,
whatever the plan. Guilt is often self-imposed for no logical
reason.
3. If today is not going well, don't force it. Stop and do
something you enjoy.
