Blogimme on uudistunut! 🤩
Vuonna 2025 käsittelemme joka kuukausi yhtä muistisairauksiin liittyvää teemaa (mm. vertaistuki, päihteet, pitkäaikaishoito). Luvassa on totuttuun tapaan vinkkejä kirjoista tai muista teemaan liittyvistä teoksista ⬇️

Meryl Streep said:
"Aging is not for the weak. One day you wake up and realize that your youth is gone, but along with it, so go insecurity, haste, and the need to please... You learn to walk more slowly, but with greater certainty. You say goodbye without fear, and you cherish those who stay. Aging means letting go, it means accepting, it means discovering that beauty was never in our skin... but in the story we carry inside us."

Lukuvinkkejä📚
Muistisairauksia käsitteleviä lastenkirjoja on julkaistu ilahduttavan paljon viime vuosina. Tarinoiden avulla lapsi saa uutta ymmärrystä, miksi isovanhempi tai muu läheinen käyttäytyy eri tavalla, unohtaa asioita tai tarvitsee apua.
