Bathroom Battles, Snacks & Escape Plans — Just Another Visit #dementia

Sep 23, 2026

Just another not-so-typical day in the world of dementia caregiving. 💥

Today’s visit with Mama included:
🛁 A struggle to get her to the bathroom
🧺 Straightening out her clean clothes
🍿 A quick snack
🎯 And a failed attempt to get her to hula hoop (she had other plans and wouldn’t stay in the room!)

It’s moments like these that remind me: there’s no script in memory care. You just show up, love hard, and try again tomorrow. 💜

If you’re a caregiver for someone with dementia, you already know — it’s part patience, part creativity, and a whole lot of deep breaths.
