"Ever wondered why your loved one with dementia tells stories that aren't quite true? It's not lying — it's confabulation, and understanding it can transform how you provide care."

If you have a family member with dementia, you've most likely dealt with this.

We’re kicking off a new season of Dementia Untangled with a popular question: Ever wondered why your loved one with dementia tells stories that aren't quite true? It's not lying — it's confabulation, and understanding it can transform how you provide care.

In our latest episode, we sit down with Helle Brand, PA, a dementia care specialist who breaks down this complex behavior in ways that finally make sense. We explore why these false memories happen, how they differ from delusions, and most importantly — how caregivers can respond with compassion instead of correction.

If you've ever felt the strain of wanting to "set the record straight" with someone you love, this conversation is for you. Helle shares practical strategies that preserve dignity, reduce distress, and help you maintain meaningful connections even when memories get tangled.
