I'm so glad you were able to attend, @kristin816. Yes, I found this a very worthwhile presentation as well. I was especially interested in the information about sleep and how uninterrupted sleep can help with any form of dementia.

Does your dad have sleep problems?

Yes - he does have that RUN sleep disorder - and so far we are able to manage it with busy days & a time-release melatonin tablet at night (we tried a few different ones to find one that worked for him). Interesting - when he is "too busy" or stressed about the next day he has trouble sleeping thought the night. So we are working on finding a balance of activity - enough to sleep but not too much to stress him out.
