Thurs. Nov. 21st: Dasha Kiper on her book ‘Travelers to Unimaginable Lands– Stories of Dementia, the Caregiver and the Human Brain’

November 21, 2024 9:15 am

Location: Zoom

Join us as we honor Alzheimer’s Awareness Month with Dasha Kiper, author of “Travelers to Unimaginable Lands- Stories of Dementia, the Caregiver, and the Human Brain.” Dasha has worked for over fifteen years supporting care partners. She shares insights and perspective on why caring for a person with dementia can be so challenging, why care partners continue to engage in patterns —correcting, arguing, taking symptoms personally that they know are counterproductive, and provides profound wisdom on how the healthy brain and the mind of the person with dementia interact.
