When dementia enters a marriage, the relationship you've built together begins to shift in ways you never anticipated. You're still partners, but the dynamics are changing — and so are you.

For this second episode of our February series on Love, Loss, and Connection, we're bringing back an important conversation with host Dawn Platt as she explores what it means to care for a spouse living with dementia. She shares practical guidance on adapting to your evolving roles, maintaining your own well-being amid the demands of caregiving, and working through the challenges that arise along the way.

Whether you're newly navigating this journey or have been walking this path for a while, this conversation offers both insight and solidarity as we examine how dementia reshapes our closest relationships, and how those bonds endure.

🍝 From the Big Screen to the Dinner Table: Nonna’s Night!
We just wrapped up a multi-day Italian celebration that filled our hearts (and stomachs) to the brim! Nonna’s Night wasn’t just a dinner; it was a journey of tradition, flavor, and family.

Here’s how we brought a taste of Italy to our community:

🎬 Day 1: Finding Inspiration
We kicked things off with a special screening of Nonna’s. Watching the film sparked so many memories of Sunday dinners and secret family ingredients, getting everyone in the perfect headspace to start cooking.

👩‍🍳 Day 2: The Flour Starts Flying
Our residents became the head chefs! Taking inspiration from the movie, their own heritage and guidance from our Director of Dining Services, Nina, they spent the day hand-crafting traditional Italian favorites. From kneading dough to simmering authentic sauces, the kitchen was buzzing with stories and incredible aromas.

🍷 Day 3: The Grand Family Feast
The best part of any Italian meal is the company. Our residents invited their friends and families to join them for a massive, family-style dinner. There’s truly nothing better than seeing generations come together over a plate of "made-from-scratch" pasta.

"Food is the ingredient that binds us together." — Our residents certainly proved that this week!

Falls don't have to be inevitable, and the solution is simpler than you think. In this powerful finale to our January Wellness Series, Host Dawn Platt welcomes back Dr. Brittany Tallhamer, a physical and occupational therapist who has witnessed firsthand how movement can transform lives at any age or stage of dementia. Brittany shares the shocking truth about what happens when we stop moving, reveals how one bedbound patient walked 30 feet after just one week of therapy, and breaks down the exact exercises that help keep memory care residents not just safer, but more engaged. Tune in to learn why we don't lose mobility because we age; we age faster because we stop moving.
