We cannot do anything but to accept a person who has dementia. It is not his or her fault to have it. Dementia is progressive and we cannot delay or stop it.

Its not easy to accept any new or unusual condition normally. In order to accept a parent with dementia, just think of your childhood when you did lots of mistakes but your parents never abandoned you, they taught you how to speak, how to walk, how to eat, how to read and so on. And now when your parent have developed an unavoidable health condition so its your turn to pay back and love them the way they loved you whole life.

Dementia is like any other disease as with the case of dealing with other sickness, this more affects the mind. I need to be very patient with the parent as I know how this disease has caused damage which is beyond one's control.

Accepting a parent with dementia can be challenging, but some tips include educating yourself about the disease, practicing empathy and patience, communicating clearly and respectfully, seeking support from others, and focusing on preserving meaningful moments and memories. Additionally, it may be helpful to prioritize self-care, such as engaging in relaxing activities, seeking counseling or therapy, and taking breaks when needed.
