Caring for a loved one with dementia is a profound journey, one that often requires more than just practical caregiving skills.
It demands emotional resilience, understanding, and a deep dive into the lesser-known aspects of the condition. But what are these lesser-known aspects, and how can you, as a caregiver, better navigate this challenging path?
