NEW! Life Memories Journal: Sharing stories and wisdom across generations
The Life Memories Journal includes more than 50 questions from our popular Caring Cards series. Simple yet powerful, each question can stimulate hours of enjoyable conversation. For every question, there are two pages on which to record stories and wisdom. And there are extra pages at the back of the Journal, so you can make up your own questions too. Everyone has a story. Everyone has wisdom. And because we never know how much time we will have with our loved ones, now is the time to capture their stories.
Whether it’s a childhood hobby, an historic discovery or a quirky relative, the person you are caring for has interesting stories to share about life in days gone by. Sharing memories is a great way to deepen your relationship with an aging relative – but sometimes, we all need help thinking of new and meaningful things to talk about. That’s where Caring Cards come in. With over 50 questions on a wide range of topics, Caring Cards make it easy to engage your loved one in meaningful conversation.
From Surviving to Thriving:
Transforming Your Caregiving Journey
Yes, compassionate caregiving for a senior family member can be a “gift”, not only for your aging relative, but also for yourself.
