Absolutely brilliant.
I am working on the interpersonal skill transformation which needs to take place.
NORMAL family behaviours can make things worse.

Mind Aid for dementia symptoms. Provides brain with additional source of energy.

This is amazing! I wish that I'd seen something like this when my father was diagnosed. God bless you for trying to help caregivers understand what their loved ones are going through.

i know there is a blind spot in each eye where the retina meets the optic nerve, but since we already ignore it instinctively, why would u draw it on the goggles?

After viewing videos provided by the Lighthouse Institute, it showed how difficult it is to try to see with the spot in the middle as a function of of macular degeneration. The spot is not designed to simulate the blind spot in the retina but rather, the spot subsequent to macular degeration. Thanks for your comment.
