Great talk with lots of good information. The part about music in particular resonated with me.
I sing with my Mom every day and hired a wonderful music therapist to come and play piano and guitar with her once each week.
Here’s an example of the magical results:

Thanks for sharing the video. It’s wonderful!

There is a widely held misconception in the African American community that the Alzheimer’s disease is mostly a white disease. This is not only a false notion, it is a view fraught with danger for black people. There is a terrific book by author Will Gibson that dispels this falsehood. ESTELLA & SYLVIA, while a novel that tells a warm, loving family story, deals with many of the issues and challenges regarding Alzheimer’s.
As Frances Blake, a book lover who enjoys a good story while caring for her sick mother, says about ESTELLA & SYLVIA: “This is one of the most unique family stories I’ve ever read. I found myself rooting for the whole family. It also helped me as a caregiver and helped my friends understand what I was going through. Most important, my friends enjoyed it immensely as good fiction.”—
