Alzheimer's Reading Room
Our reader Daisy is seeking gift ideas.
Hi, I´m wondering if anyone could share a good idea for a gift for my grandpa? The thing is my grandmother has Alzheimer´s and she not able to express by words anymore (except the words yes and no).
My grandpa use to visit her every second day but now he is no longer available to go because of is own illness.
A few days ago I saw a lot of sorrow and sadness in his eyes (almost like he was completely falling apart).
I only wish I could do something for him to bring them closer together again.
