I wish I had known this type of thing existed when my DFIL was still here with us. It would have helped keep him busy and occupied when he was at home and when he was moved to a nursing home. He's been gone 5years now. My uncle is suffering from Alz. And in a nursing home right now. He might be too far into this horrible disease to even benefit from something like this, but I love the whole idea. I may make some for the home where DFIL was in memory of him. And as someone said, it is much harder on the family and caregivers than the patient.. At first they are devastated, frustrated, but they eventually forget that and move to the next stage, but the family doesn't. It's horrible and scares me to death.
