@ashley43725 , welcome. I'm tagging fellow MCI members like @SusanEllen66 @edsutton @lhb09876 @mablesmith @peat @fletchette @gardenia123 @osteocurious to join me in welcoming you and introducing themselves.

Ashley, as you notice your cognitive abilities declining, what tools, aids, or tricks have you adopted to help you?

I do a lot of puzzles, word games, math games. I also listen to music, different genres for variety. I take daily half hour walks. I do art puzzles and go,to museums. I also follow the MIND diet. There’s lots of reliable and valid data to support this diet.
Once I got used to doing these things they have become how I live now. I was diagnosed with early vascular dementia last fall. I’m 77 years old and will do what I can to slow this disease down.
