Scenario

When families grieve and cope with dementia differently

My adult children and I had to make the decision to put my spouse in memory care and now we're all processing it differently - some of us visit constantly, others can barely go, and there's judgment on all sides. We're grieving the same loss but in completely different ways and it's driving us apart when we need each other most.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The same devastating loss is fracturing the family along the lines of how each person can bear to meet it.
