Hi, I am new.
My family member has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's a while ago.
I see her often and spend precious time with her.
I would like some suggestion/advice on activities we can do together, please.
On top of this memory problem, she has sight problem as well.
At the moment, she listens to audio books and radio, listens to someone reading papers and books to her and have a discussion about the topics, goes to classical concerts, visits gardens, go on little holidays, etc., but she needs more activity to fill her days.
I have tried games that doesn't have to be able to see at family gatherings but didin't go very well.
I have been thinking what else we can do with her so that this (almost) blind person doesn't get bored.
She used to do cooking, gardening, knitting, and so on but sadly can't do any more as she can't see and she gets too confused.
Thank you.
