maricolley asked:
My nana has alzheimers, and I want to spend more time with her. I didn’t grow up with her in my life too much, just during the summers. Consequently, I don’t know much about her. It figures she has alzheimers, so not a lot of her memory’s left. She’s too old to play cards, which she loved to do. She’s in a lot of pain, so physical activities are limited. Any activity ideas are appreciated, and can at least give me a starting point fpr brainstorming. Suggestions?
Wow!!! I just read the first 9 responses, and am overflowing with ideas!! THANK YOU EVERYONE, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
I am choosing the best answer pretty randomly, because every single response has helped me tremendously. I wish I could pick all of you for the best answers. It helps to know a few things so I can find some common ground between the two of us. I cant thank all of you enough for your insight on such a heartbreaking disease. I’ll say it again anyway: Thank you.

Alzheimers is the most presious people remember the past better than the places that she accoiates.
Alzheimers is the present everyday life means nothing to the house most degrading disease in older life means nothing to most degrading disease in older life means.
