For the next month, I am raising money for the Alzheimer’s Association and will be playing in a flag football game to support the cause. If you would like to support my efforts, please consider making a small donation to http://act.alz.org/site/TR/BvB/AZ-Des...

Hey there Careblazers! Welcome back to Careblazers TV, the place where we talk about everything dementia. If you are caring for a loved one with any type of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy Body Dementia, or vascular dementia, then this is the place for you!

This week’s video explains all about Lewy Body Dementia. What is it and what are the main symptoms. Lewy Body Dementia is actually a common form of dementia but it can be really difficult for doctors to diagnose. This video explains why.

ALSO, for those of you who watch the video until the end, you will see my video bloopers. Apparently, for some reason I really like to make fart noises with my mouth when I mess up.

I really want to make Careblazers as helpful as possible so let me know what you want to learn about or what your biggest struggles are and I will do my best to find a way to bring you information to help.

- Dr. Natali

In case you haven’t met me, my name is Natali Edmonds and I am a board certified geropsychologist. That means that I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with older adults. In my job, I help people with dementia, and their caregivers, by visiting them in their own homes and helping them cope through the many struggles of caring for someone with dementia. I have always wanted to help more people than is possible for me in a work day. One day, while hiking a trail, I came up with the idea for Careblazers and I decided to see if posting videos online could provide help to the many other Careblazers in the world who don’t get to have help come directly to them in their homes. I hope that this work helps you in some way on your caregiving journey.

Blaze on!
