[quote=Anonymous]Are there things you would recommend doing for or with a parent *before* the dementia becomes an issue? My father is the youngest of four, and his siblings all have dementia. Their mother had dementia, and one of my cousins has a form of early-onset dementia that began in young adulthood. Of course we’re praying Dad will be spared, but the genetics are strong. It occurred to me tonight that this at least means an opportunity to plan ahead, just in case. Given the wealth of hard experience among this group, I wondered: is there anything you wish you could have done if you’d been able to know what was coming?[/quote]
