If you are a care giver for or a family member of someone with dementia, consider making a custom memory book to improve quality of life. A memory book is described as a “collection of photos, letters, printouts, and other memorabilia,” paired with written descriptions. Even as the disease may progress, these physical reminders help preserve the sense of identity for the person. Other benefits include stimulating memory, facilitating communication between loved ones, and significantly increasing mood.
