Some Content For The Times

Hello all,

Carol asked me to share this video from Natali Edmonds and Careblazers regarding the Covid-19 situation, dealing with a loved one with dementia who wishes to go outside/return to their normal public places and how one can help them practice social distancing. It has plenty of great information regarding for this unprecedented situation for you as a care partner. You can watch it below and click through to the Careblazers YouTube page.

On a lighter note, in such uncertain times it is important to count the blessings we do have and keep our heads level. Here is a list of the things that we can be positive and thankful for each day as we deal with this worldwide pandemic. It was shared with us in an email and we thought everyone should see it. A little perspective and some reflection can go a long way. Remember, we will get through this together.

1. There are no bombs raining on our heads. ​
2. I am not a prisoner held in solitary confinement, as millions are. ​
3. I am not a refugee trying to escape with my life. ​
4. I am not standing in line waiting to fill a pot of water. ​
5. I have access to fresh food and I'm not starving. ​
6. I have hot running water. ​
7. My country has not been ruined by years of war. ​
8. I can reach my friends by phone and check in on them. ​
9. My friends check in on me because they care about me. ​
10. Any whiplash I feel about this strange turn of events is itself a sign of privilege. ​
11. More than half of the world would gladly trade their everyday problems for the modest inconveniences I am experiencing. 
12. I may have anxious dreams but I'm dreaming them on a proper bed and I'm not sleeping on the sidewalk. ​
13. By staying at home, I'm helping the planet rest. ​
14. As long as I have my mind I can create, imagine, dream and not be lonely. ​
15. This global crisis connects me to people around the world and reminds me of our common humanity. This is a good thing. 
16. When something tragic happens to another country next time, I will respond to it not with superiority, but humility and recognition. ​
17. I will fight for positive changes and economically just policies in my own country. ​
18. I am surrounded by books. ​
19. I am surrounded by love. ​
20. The trees have already begun to bloom. ​
21. The robins have returned, a sure sign of Spring.
​
All the best to you,
Joe
