I’ve seen it happen too often: waiting too long to ask for help leads to crisis and stress. Home care supports independence and safety—don’t hesitate to explore your options!

09/20/2025

From what I’ve witnessed, love and hard work alone won’t fix the aging care crisis. We must demand systemic change now. 💪🧓💖

This video features an authentic conversation with my sister regarding her experiences of living away from home while I stayed nearby to take care of our dad. We discuss my choice to bring our parents to live in a house with my family and the effects that decision had on her.

09/18/2025

This is the video I cherish the most that I created with my mom, where we address the repetitive question that often arises while taking care of someone who has dementia.

09/17/2025

This video features my mom and me as we share some insights on dementia that we've gathered from our experience caring for my dad. While my mom does not have dementia herself, she is a fantastic and energetic actress as well as my supportive partner in this endeavor.

09/16/2025

My fall showed me just how vital this conversation is. Don’t wait—ask your parents about their vision, furniture hazards, meds, and how they manage stairs. Balance starts with us. 🏃‍♂️🛋️

🕊️ Today, I want to share a personal moment that perfectly illustrates the beauty of connection, even amid challenges. Recently, I stumbled upon a voicemail from my dad, who lived with moderate dementia before he passed. In the message, he was a bit confused and didn’t remember why he called, but his voice brought a wave of comfort and nostalgia that I cherish deeply. This memory highlights the importance of treasuring every interaction, regardless of our circumstances. It’s a reminder that love transcends memory, and these fleeting moments can bring us joy and clarity in our caregiving journey. Let’s continue advocating for compassionate care and the emotional connections that make it all worthwhile. 💖

I want families to understand memory care isn’t one size fits all; asking the right questions can make all the difference for your loved one’s happiness and safety. 🧡🏠

09/13/2025

From my experience, small group homes can be warm and personal, but quality varies a lot. Always ask about staff ratios and how they handle care changes. Your gut feeling matters! ❤️🏠

09/12/2025

I want to help you see assisted living clearly—it offers meals and some help, but the care isn’t personalized. Ask the tough questions when touring. 🧡👵

09/11/2025

I want to be realistic about home care—how it supports independence, the cost shifts as needs grow, and what questions to ask to find the right help. 💕👵

09/10/2025

I explain the truths behind independent living—what’s included, what’s not, and why it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution.

This is why we walk. 💜

When Michelle’s dad, Don, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s at age 69, her family’s world changed forever. Over 10 years, she watched him go from living at home with caregivers to assisted living, and eventually to an Alzheimer’s unit before he passed away at age 79.

Earlier this year, dementia touched her family again when Michelle’s mom, Sandy, had a stroke and heart attack that rapidly advanced her dementia. Now in memory care, Michelle visits Sandy every evening. Despite these challenges, she finds gratitude: “Even though my mom has changed, I’m still creating memories with her.”

For Michelle, Walk to End Alzheimer’s is about honoring her parents and connecting with others. Each year, she joins her Home Instead team and others in the senior care community to walk not in sadness, but in hope for a cure.

It’s because of passionate people like Michelle that Home Instead, a Walk to End Alzheimer’s Gold National Team, has raised nearly $5.5 million over the past 17 years — including $280,000 just last year — to advance critical Alzheimer’s care, support, and research.

Together with the , we’re fighting for a future without Alzheimer’s and all other dementia. Let’s make 2025 our most impactful year yet. 💪

We walk for our clients. We walk for our families.💜
And this year, we walk with one goal: to help end Alzheimer’s.

At Home Instead, we’ve seen the impact of Alzheimer’s and other dementias firsthand in the homes we visit, in the people we love, and in the lives of those we serve every day. That’s why we’re proud to be a National Team in the 2025 Walk to End Alzheimer’s.

Together, our network has raised nearly $5.5 million over the past 17 years—and more than $280,000 just last year. 🎉 Let’s make 2025 our biggest impact yet.

“There’s no do-overs in grief, and so there’s a ton of second guessing in grief.” — Lisa Pahl

“Families often wait too long to access hospice care. The truth? Hospice can provide months of support—not just days.”

Another throwback to the one and only Mary Maxwell at our 2009 Convention. With her signature humor, she reminded us what it means to age with dignity—and to laugh along the way (especially when you can’t find your car). 😅💚

It’s hotter than a pepper sprout out there! 🥵

And while we’re all reaching for iced drinks and fans, older adults need a little extra care to stay safe in the summer heat.

Here’s your caregiver-approved summer safety toolkit for aging loved ones:

💧 Hydrate with variety – Water is essential, but try chilled fruit, herbal iced tea, smoothies, or even popsicles to keep it fun and refreshing.

👒 Dress smart – Light, breathable clothing and wide-brimmed hats help regulate temperature and protect sensitive skin.

🌬️ Cool it down – If there’s no AC, use fans, cold washcloths, or even a bowl of cool water for hands and wrists to provide quick relief.

🌿 Time outdoor activities wisely – Early mornings or evenings are safest. A short stroll, porch chat, or birdwatching can bring joy without overheating.

👂 Connect with care – Sometimes, just being present — listening, sharing a memory, or sitting together — is the best form of comfort.

Let’s keep our older adults safe, seen, and supported this summer.

“As a caregiver, you're always juggling three things: independence, safety, and the third we could describe as like joy or comfort.” — Adria Thompson

When you're making decisions on behalf of someone else, the stakes feel higher, and the guilt runs deeper. In this episode of Caregiver Chats, Dr. Lakelyn and Adria unpack the emotional complexity of caregiving and introduce the idea of choosing a priority in the moment.
Whether your loved one is in the early or late stages of dementia, knowing whether to lead with independence, safety, or joy can guide your choices—and ease some of the pressure. 💚 Tune in wherever you get your podcasts. 🎧 https://apple.co/3RuALpz

Ever ask someone with dementia what they think?

“Do you like this shirt?” “Should I shave my goatee?”

David Troxel does, and here’s why: when you ask for someone’s opinion, it shows you value them. And for those living with dementia, feeling valued goes a long way.

In this moment, David Troxel shares simple ways to connect through kindness, humor, and everyday activities. Because with dementia care, even 30 seconds of connection can brighten their lives. 🧠💚
