This is some great advice and perspective to have as a caregiver. #Repost @sustainablecaregiving with @get.repost

...Staying connected to what we value means protecting our other relationships and protecting ourselves from burnout. In this way, boundaries are a form of self-care. Self-imposed boundaries may be the most valuable.

Unfortunately, these two terms get ...used interchangeably all the time! But it’s really important to know the difference between the two. There are different diseases that CAUSE dementia. Dementia is a set of symptoms, including memory loss, and decline in other functions that lead to disruption in daily life.

❗️Alzheimer’s is the most common disease that causes dementia❗️

➡️A great way that I remember this is by saying “ they have dementia because of their Alzheimer’s.”

Does this make sense?💜
