Tips for caregivers!!

I think my tip for managing my husband who has Dementia and Parkinsons disease is when ever he would start to get angry,scared or
frustrated I would stand up and face him,eye to eye.I would make sure he had calmed down a bit then I would go in for a hug.Not just any old hug,a
big warm hug,and make it last a while. He would just melt in my arms.
💔Sometimes I would cry and sometimes he would cry.But then his agitation was over.I of course would do this if your loved one could get violent but I've given this tip to many caregivers through the 6 years we've been going through this horrible process. 😢 I also would say that you look for a support group in your area.
These friends literally saved my life.🥰I was at my last straw when I learned about my support group.I just thank God I found this life raft because I was angry and sad and they helped me work through all my feelings.Love to all of us that are going through this nightmare 💔
