@nealkshah: Your "sacrifice" is actually making your parent's dementia WORSE. The one thing caregivers think is helping — doing everything for their parent — is the #1 behavior neurologists say speeds up cognitive decline. What to do instead. 💔 Every caregiver needs to see this. Share it with someone who's giving everything and still feels like it's not enough.

I make my mom help with dishes and doing things in the house. I have no idea where any of my Tupperware is or pots and pans … I have a few things left… but at least she tried… but where is she putting them??!

Tysm! God bless u! I needed this so badly! This is the last video I’m going to watch before I head to bed. I’m going to pray that God guide me and bless me and my family throughout this hard time. I know it will be lengthy, but having Tiktok being able to follow people like you to help us caretaker guide through life helps tremendously 🙏🏻

I needed to hear this. My sister and I are caregivers for our 97 yo dad and 89yo mom. Our dad is showing signs of dementia and we want to do everything for him.

as the Airlines tell us on the safety talk, when the oxygen masks fall put yours on first before helping others, if you don't protect your self you cant help others or yourself 💯👏👍

I get torn about this. My dad is 94 and has full-time cstheter bag attached to him. He walks with a cane and holds bag so I jump to help him do everything. And he asks for everything to be done for him, but if I've run out tk a doc appt or something, he'll magically do it for himself. And now this tiktok suggest I should be letting him do it. You feel sorry because they look so helpless such a hard thing to navigate!
