“What I've seen is a connection that happens with our brain and our hands. As people pick up a new material, they're invigorated," said Edgar. "They're just in that moment when they're making. I think it's lovely to offer those moments."

“We want to dispel the myth that aging is a problem to be solved. Older people have lots of strengths and capacities and have much to contribute to our understanding of aging.” @engAGE_CU @Concordia

@petersversion Thank you sharing this. There is a lot of great work being done in the field and wonderful projects to maintain a life full of creativity and autonomy (as much as possible). A big part is continuing to build relationships on trust and listening to the person with dementia.

“I know people in my research and people in my circle who have dementia that are incredibly high functioning and have found ways to cope and compensate with their memory loss on a day-to-day basis.”
