Love the education, thank you. Shame the camera wasn't onto the brain pictures.

Fabulous content and presentation!. It’s really frustrating, though, when Teepa shows the braIn scans to the audience but not to the video audience. Hopefully this is corrected in your newer videos. Thank you for helping me to know how to care for my husband of 52 years who has both Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease. You are a gift from above.

My 91 years old mother started her dementia in the last few weeks and it progressively worsen. I’m so glad to find your video. You are an angel send from above. Thank YOU so much

This woman has an amazing way of sharing the data she has painstakingly gone through and memorized! I wonder how she is today? I hope she’s still educating others. She’s got an amazing way of delivering such important information.

Extraordinarily valuable information presented in a fun and memorable way. Showing how to physically communicate with a person with dementia is excellent because real humans were used in the experiment. lol ...And the physical connection is necessary for further communication. I wish everybody in the world had this information because many of us have or will have parents, other family members, or friends with dementia. From an OTA. :)

I enjoy watching her interact with her audience, part one and two was a delight but I wish she would have showed the difference between the two brains as they progressed.

[@EstherHutton]

too bad we can't see the brains

[@ellisaann71]

I would sit down with my family and let them know what is going on with you and also resources are a great way to help cope and teach them about this disease.

[@vinaballgobin897]

Thank you very much Teepa. It was very interesting and helpful as usual.

[@jacquelinemartin6316]

I tried to get my sister to understand that mom doesn't rember I have a poem from my other sister Alzheimer's poem don't ask me to remember don't ask me to remember don't try to make me to understand let me rest and know you're with me kiss me on my check and hold my hand I'm confused beyond your. Concept I am. Sand and sick and lost all I know is that I need you to be wy me at all cost don't loose your patience with me don't scold or curse or cry I can't help the way I'm acting can't be different through I try just remember that I need you the best of me is gone this poem is for care givers that take care of there loved ones they take things for granted when I'm gone think of things good things times we had I can't remember what I read no matter what I read I still can't and what people tell me lie is so short and treat me Dignity

[@leecarrigan1823]

Why aren't we able to see the screen. Quite the disadvantage to a wonderful otherwise presentation

[@jenellechar1963]

someone should write some answers of the 3 approaches on what you liked lol.

[@terryvanhefter7898]

How do I get my siblings to understand this and realize what I’m going through is such horrific disaster!

[@denisedavies5950]

❤ its hard being a Carer. Look for community groups dealing with the same thing for help and advice...your not on your own. there are many people out there doing the same. Just keep letting your sibblings know what is happening everyday...every day over and over...all you can hope for is some help. You cant force them. But keep them up to date 🥰 with no judgement.

[@tt9231]

As I watched the video. I wish I could translate to different languages for the Asians community to understand so they can properly care for their love one. My sister is helping my mother with dementia and doesn’t understand the symptoms and behavior. I heard her yelling at my mom from the camera and it’s so painful to hear and watch. I have to do something about spreading the information
