Caregiving during the holidays

A message to caregivers during the holidays:

While the world seems to speed up with parties, traditions, and expectations, caregivers are often carrying an invisible load that becomes even heavier during the holidays.

If you are caring for someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia this holiday season, know this: your love, patience, and presence matter more than any perfectly wrapped gift or flawless celebration.

The holidays may look different now—but the care you give is profound, meaningful, and deeply seen, even when it feels invisible.

Here are some things to keep in mind during this season.
