Hello @sturg9876 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I can see from your profile information that you are recently now in a caregiver role for an your loved one who is now 80 years old and recently diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia and Mythesnia Gravis.

You mention that you are here to learn how to help them life the best of the rest of their days. That is such a loving act.

As you may have seen from the posts before yours, there are several members who have recently participated in this discussion who may be able to share their experiences with you. @wifehenry recently joined the discussion and she is a caregiver as well, to her husband. Other members like @marcia101 @mizmish has also been here and sharing.

What do you see as your greatest challenge and opportunity as you move forward with this diagnosis for your loved one?
