I noticed my husband had forgotten how to sit in the dining room chair. He would stand beside it for minutes before sitting down. Then I watched him at the toilet where he had no problems sitting and realized he needed to go the same direction. So I shared with him what I observed and he tried it with success. He still stands by the dining chair awhile before sitting down, but he can do it on his own.
Wow @MCremeans, great detective work! This method of observing and trying things together is exactly what Teepa teaches. Keep up the good work, and feel free to chat with our consultants if you want another perspective:

I show my husband with my body what I need him to do. That seems to help him navigate space more reliably
You are so blessed in helping us with helping our loved ones who have Dementia. I love your beautiful help. God bless you.
Such an important topic. Movement changes looked as as a barometer of altered ability is helpful. Thank you.

I've noticed alot of change this last year. She doesn't notice things at her feet. Stamina is much less. Ability to handle crowds, stores, change in environment is getting alot more over whelming.
Thank you again, dear Teepa

Very,very, good advice!! Thanks.

Thank you for sharing this information. I have iatrogenic harm from serotonin toxicity and ever since my movement has been messed up (akathisia etc.) and my memory, balance, and proprioception are an absolute mess now.

At 89, my mother has yet to be evaluated by her Doctor for the obvious signs she is experiencing cognitive decline. The challenges she has with decreasing mobility and mental acuity have been excused as part of aging rather than acknowledging the stark difference to her daily routines and abilities. She is scheduled for a Zoom session this coming March with the Heersink School of Medicine (UAB) which may finally offer a determination that she is on the path of mild cognitive decline or further along into dementia.
From my personal viewpoint she seems to be exhibiting the former yet despite my entreaties to address her balance issues (via the one legged stand) and progress toward establishing a pattern of exercise she depends on the judgement and recommendation of her Doctor. At one point I felt that a combination of the medications she was taking were exacerbating her fogginess and unsteadiness but as she has thankfully weaned off of those she still displays these inabilities to comprehend and ambulate. A recurring habit of password changes with her online interactions predates the more pronounced slowdown she presents currently.
My brother who has a closer relationship shouldered the burden of assisting with this as well as alarmingly frequent cancellations of her credit cards when she felt they might have been compromised. As I've become more involved with some of these issues I've been disheartened that he seems to share the Doctor's reluctance to persuade her to more aggressively confront these struggles. From what I've gleaned, exercise and social engagement are the most positive steps she can make to slow the progression of what she faces.
The comment section of a year old video posted on this platform is undoubtedly a poor place for advice or consolation but sometimes it's cathartic to vent.
Hi, @Galactic Overlord, thanks for sharing your thoughts/questions and reaching out. This comment place is a a good place for venting and connecting. It sounds like you have a lot of questions and concerns. I'm wondering since you have some time before the UAB zoom call, would you like to connect with a member of our consulting team to work through some ways to communicate your concerns? We offer free 30- minute session to start. please email consult@teepasnow.com or call us at 1-877-877-1671 to get connected. You are not alone and we are here to help.
I noticed Drs chalk it all up to knee pain and missed the dementia until i became more involved in her medical care.

I didnt realize lewy body dementia has everything to do with movement, i thought it was labeled under the " parkinsons " diagnosis

Hey @MarthaRivera, yes, the challenge with Lewy Body is there is not enough information out there, so it often gets missed totally!
Here are some great resources on Teepa's site about Lewy Body:

My mom waters the flowers.....literally to death.....but she HAS to water the flowers....
I think if I had Alzheimer's I would do that. It must bring her the joy it brings me. Have a rotation of plants so they don't drown! Lol

Hi, @ticky too too! This is Shelly, a member of Teepa's team. Great question. I'm wondering if you might want to check out some of our resources that talk about challenging situations: teepasnow.com/product/creative-solutions-to-challenging-situations-workbook/ and/or teepasnow.com/product/creative-solutions-to-challenging-situations-streaming/. Another video that might be of interest th-cam.com/video/ZpXeefZ2jAM/w-d-xo.html and finally, consider checking out our consulting offerings: teepasnow.com/services/consulting/
I noticed my mother a very hard time lifting packages, opening anything, getting in the car in a g out is extremely hard and she shuffling walking and holding on to the wall . She’s in such denial and she’s a risk now her eye doctor says she has cataract so she blames it on that now but that wouldn’t happen having trouble getting up and down and extreme incontence. No Doctor it’s so ironic mentions dementia. She’s 76 and the decline has been the last 10 years and to me she’s a risk . My neighbors see it but no Doctor does
Thanks for sharing that with us. We offer a free 30 minute consult at teepasnow.com/services/consulting/phone-consultations/.

No video??
Hmmm... @WxYz This video seems to be working on our end... but please reach out to info@teepasnow.com if it still won't come through for you!
Thanks for connecting!
I love you😊
Hi, @George Blair, thanks so much! I appreciate your thoughts. If you'd like to see/learn more please consider checking out our website (www.teepasnow.com) or check out what we're doing on TikTok (www.tiktok.com/@teepasnow?)
I will....i live with someone with it....i believe hands on is a great learning experience....but coming upon your videos is very eye opening....
My girlfriend whos now in assistant living. Has dementia. She can no longer walk. And she used to be a great dancer. But I thought this video was about people with dementia, not potential if they have dementia. Every human being on earth knows about moving and not moving. That the brain controls that. I thought I would hear advice,About the people who have it, and can’t walk. Not if you might think you have it. It was a lot of talk around stuff that I was hearing from you.
Hi, @Bernard Winn, I'm sorry that this video wasn't what you were hoping to hear/see. I wanted to let you know that it really doesn't hang just on it's own. It was created to be an intro piece to a month of articles in our Online Dementia Journal. Maybe you could find some added helpful content there. Consider signing up for the Journal (teepasnow.com/newsletter-subscribe/) or maybe reading some of the back issues (teepasnow.com/online-dementia-journal/)
horrible video to follow scrap it
Hello, @Nano Light, I'm sorry that you didn't find this video valuable to you. If you'd like to discuss more about it, we would like to talk. Please contact us at 1-877-877-1671 or info@teepasnow.com.
This presentation seemed "off" to me. The items mentioned were exactly what I wanted to hear about. It seems like "word salad." Very difficult to follow. Sorry.
