Coming Soon: DBD Podcast Season 4

The Dementia By Day Podcast is coming back this October for its fourth season! When the podcast returns, the blog goes into hibernation. While it will still be here and available for reading 24/7/365, it won't be newly updated for a few months, as the podcast will take its place. Interested in past seasons? Check out the podcast page and listen in for seasons 1 through 3!

Hi! Why is it hard to get her UA? Is it because she goes to the bathroom independently whenever she wants to? Or is it because she doesn’t want to use a urine hat? If I know what her concern is, we can figure out a way to help her cooperate. Let me know what you are thinking.
