[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to really help him, social contact and learning a NEW skill are best. So visits (with friends, members of his church, neighbors, family ). Perhaps a language app, following a recipe, learning the rules of a new game or sport. Physical activity is good too. Could you start walking club where he lives? [/quote] This x 1000. He needs brain stimulation from several different sources. Exercise is important for blood flow to the brain. Social activity is good for both the brain and emotional health. Trying something new fires up unused parts of the brain and creates new neutral pathways. Did he previously play a musical instrument? I started playing piano again after not playing for 25 years, and I think it has helped me. I feel so good when I can finally play a piece that had given me trouble as well.[/quote]
