This is gonna sound fucked up but you have to learn to laugh with dementia. My grandpa had it for eight years and I took care of him. His entire life he would wake up and have his coffee and do his crossword puzzles. One day he wasn’t in the greatest mood so before he got up to start his day I took his crossword puzzle and started filling in the spaces with messages and it was the funniest thing ever to see the look on his face like trying to figure out if it was like talking to him or what. You gotta have a little fun on the way because dementia is a real bitch sometimes!
