@kameronsarah: I love watching dad act so nurturing to his baby. I didn’t know if he would ever get to the point where he would enjoy carrying one around, but here we are. All the staff commented on how much joy it’s given him today. 💚 #dementia #caregiving #dolltherapy #joy
Had a dementia pt carry a baby doll like this, we thought he believed it was real. Told him it was cute and he looked deadpan and said “it’s plastic” 😂

Every time I see an elderly person revert back to baby parenting I always think they were the best parents and that was their favorite time of their lives.

This is so precious ❤️🫶🏽❤️🫶🏽My aunt was 93 and asked for a doll. She never married or had children. She said she never had a doll of her own. It was a few weeks before she passed. She was bedridden by then. We bought her a baby doll and she was so happy. It was so sweet to watch her cuddle and love that dolly 😢😢❤️❤️

He looks sweet❤️Does he understand it’s a doll? My Mother in law has dementia and I’m trying to understand if they have altered reality as well as memory.

I wonder if he was referring to himself in a way through the doll with “he can understand some things” “ we just see him once in a while”
