Just a thought, those of us with dementia usually have trouble with “over load”. We can only handle a small amount of anything (instructions, organizing, noise) before we get confused, and shut down. Our “executive function” usually disappears early.
Maybe, you could help us by keeping your questions and resources to a minimum. That would help us focus on one or two things without overwhelming our brains. I appreciate your help. Thank You.

I totally understand your point. Your response would actually be for everyone responding in length of response and links, not just mine. My teen son has ADHD and has challenges with overload and executive function so I can empathize.

One thought is to read comments in short increments and take a break or don’t read the comments at all if they are too much. No one is forcing anyone on Mayo Connect to post, read or comment. Those responding to others with questions and comments are showing they care because they stop to take the time to respond rather than just move on.

Have a good day! 🙂
