Journey is the term of art for all of life’s trials.
All of life is a journey. Rather it can be seen as many journeys. In life, we take many trips and some are sun-filled. Others are not.
Life twists and turns. There are travails. Those difficult journeys are better taken in community.
It’s tough and lonely when your loved one falls into a dementia. Seek a support group. Find an individual counselor. Take your next steps in the company of those who truly understand the path.
My point is to say, when facing the challenges of a dementia diagnosis, accept guidance. Let the wisdom of the crowd advise you. When your beloved passes, avail yourself of grief support groups, as well.
I can attest to how very useful such support, from beginning to end, is.
