Bruce Willis just learned that his illness is Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and Lewy Body Dementia- One of the hardest things to process is the slow change in the one you love. Becoming a completely different person. Everything changes.
Just so you know...đ˘ Itâs called the long goodbye. Rapidly shrinking brain is how a doctor described it. As the patient's brain slowly dies, they change physically and eventually forget who their loved ones are and become less themselves.
Patients can eventually become bedridden, unable to move and unable to eat or drink or talk to their loved ones.
There will be people who will scroll by this message because Dementia or Alzheimer's has not touched them. They may not know what it's like to have a loved one who has fought or is fighting a battle against Dementia or Alzheimer's.
In an effort to raise awareness of this cruel disease, I would like to see at least 5 of my friends put this on their timeline.
I'll settle for at least one.đ
Thank you

Imma do the best I can wit what I gottt!!!
I am beyond grateful for the many reasons that I have to LIVE! There have been times when I thought about what it would be like if I didnât have to deal with the trials, tribulations, and emotions that I was experiencing. Deep thought. But I also thought about all that I have to live for. Please donât ever stop fighting. Identify who your people are and love on them. Lean on them. Confide in them. Sending yâall love and encouragement! Share some with me! Thank you!

Some, if not all, of those amazing qualities and characteristics that you possessâŚ.. came from those that youâve âcancelledâ. đ
DEPRESSION TIPS:
Shower. Not a bath, a shower. Use water as hot or cold as you like. You donât even need to wash. Just get in under the water and let it run over you for a while. Sit on the floor if you gotta.
Moisturize everything. Use whatever lotion you like. Unscented? Dollar store lotion? Fancy 48 hour lotion that makes you smell like a field of wildflowers? Use whatever you want, and use it all over your entire dermis.
Put on clean, comfortable clothes.
Put on your favorite underwear. Cute black lacy panties? Those ridiculous boxers you bought last christmas with candy cane hearts on the butt? Put them on.
Drink cold water. Use ice. If you want, add some mint or lemon for an extra boost. I always use lemon.
Clean something. Doesnât have to be anything big. Organize one drawer of a desk. Wash five dirty dishes. Do a load of laundry. Scrub the bathroom sink.
Blast music. Listen to something upbeat and dancey and loud, something thatâs got lots of energy. Sing to it, dance to it, even if you suck at both.
Make food. Donât just grab a granola bar to munch. Take the time and make food. Even if itâs ramen. Add something special to it, like a soft boiled egg or some veggies. Prepare food, it tastes way better, and youâll feel like you accomplished something.
Make something. Write a short story or a poem, draw a picture, color a picture, fold origami, crochet or knit, sculpt something out of clay, anything artistic. Even if you donât think youâre good at it. Create.
Go outside. Take a walk. Sit in the grass. Look at the clouds. Smell flowers. Put your hands in the dirt and feel the soil against your skin.
Call someone. Call a loved one, a friend, a family member, call a chat service if you have no one else to call. Talk to a stranger on the street. Have a conversation and listen to someoneâs voice. If you canât bring yourself to call, text or email or whatever, just have some social interaction with another person. Even if you donât say much, listen to them. It helps.
Cuddle your pets if you have them/can cuddle them. Take pictures of them. Talk to them. Tell them how you feel, about your favorite movie, a new game coming out, anything.
May seem small or silly to some, but this list keeps people alive.
*** At your absolute best you wonât be good enough for the wrong people. But at your worst, youâll still be worth it to the right ones. Remember that. Keep holding on.
*** In case nobody has told you today I love you and you are worth your weight and then some in gold, so be kind to yourself and most of all keep pushing on!!!!
Find something to be grateful for!
May I please get 2 friends or family members to
copy and re-post? I am trying to demonstrate that someone is always listening.
