When your loved one resists getting dressed, asks the same question repeatedly, or suddenly becomes agitated—it's not random. It's communication.

In this episode, dementia coach Dawn Platt teaches you the "detective work" approach to identifying what's really triggering these behaviors. From sensory overload to uncomfortable clothing, small changes can make a huge difference in reducing distress for both of you.

This is the 4th and final episode in our Alzheimer's Awareness Month series—don't miss it!

Meet Kristen:
Kristen is our Director of Sales at Walker Place and the organizer of this blood drive. Kristen was diagnosed in October of 2016 with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (cancer of the bone marrow). She endured round after round of inpatient chemotherapy and months in the hospital where she relied on several blood transfusions to stay alive. Exactly a year later, the cancer returned, along with the months of inpatient chemotherapy. Throughout this journey, she received not only a Bone Marrow transplant (all the way from Germany!), but over 130 different blood and platelet transfusions. Remember, blood and platelets cannot be manufactured; they can only come from volunteer donors. Thanks to donors like you, Kristen is now alive, healthy, and living a normal life! Please if you have any questions about donating, or don’t know what to expect, please watch this video! Donating Blood 101 | Versiti Blood Centers

This Black Friday, give people like Kristen the gift of life this holiday season, sign up today! We still have 15 spots to fill! **PLUS** donors get a $25 Visa egiftcard!
