Thank you Teepa.

This was an awesome video. I am always telling Gary (my husband) that it's not him, it is Lewy. He's aware most of the time but when he's not and I say that, he will usually say "That's right, dang bluey." No doubt this is a very tough thing and it's not easy for the one with it or the caregiver (me). Thank you Teepa for doing these videos. This is the very first one I watched. It was helpful to hear it from Barry.

So many often think you realize the details when they are only speaking in generalities. I seen this with my mom so often. Teaching those cues make a vast difference.

Hi Teepa! I was wondering when he was diagnosed with LBD. He seemed to be cognitively intact and I know memory issues is not a problem with LBD not until later or the advanced stage. But great conversation, thank you!

[@alisonhowells1780]

he sounds so intact...I would give anything to have a conversation with my Father...my Fathers voice is disappearing...the words are all but gone..

[@tarak9412]

Teepa, I was wondering if you could link some information on younger men who seem to have LBD? Or, is it possible that I can email you? Because of Covid, trying to get an appointment with a neurologist is delayed. I know something serious is going on, but with no official diagnosis, I am stuck with what I can really say or do. There are definitely indicators going on , and things have changed very rapidly in the last few months. I could really use some advice from an expert.
