 | Me'n'u Menu - Menu templates for playing Restaurant in
your home.
Ma Neville was able to create her own meals - or meals for her
and Jonathon - for much longer, thanks to a simple menu posted on the
fridge (with variations). Using a more complete version,
Jonathon got to play Maitre d' and famous Chef. And yes,
Surprise of the Day is a menu option. Jonathon developed an
Optimized Food System, making food production a dance, allowing for
the convenience of pre-prepared foods and the depth of home-made,
and home-grown.

| Customized Grocery List with Photographs
- so people with early-mid Alzheimer's can still go shopping on
their own.

| Customized Calendar +
24-Hour Script.
Ma Neville uses a calendar intensively, albeit sometimes
chaotically.
Use this modifiable template to print your own calendars, with
regular events and perhaps checkboxes (pill?). People with
Alzheimer's almost universally lose the ability to initiate
activities. And the day may be structured only by "time
to eat" and "time for the news", with the rest of the
day spent lying on the couch. But if the calendar says it's
time for music lessons/practice, or it's time to go on an imaginary
journey (spin the globe and clock to anywhere, anytime), or it's
time for the Creative/Re-Minding workout, Mom does it!

| Digital Library
Actually, probably not - Jonathon has developed a, well,
awesome, collection of songs and comedy and movies for enriching
caregiving, but most are not public domain, so they can't be offered
- except as links to buy them.

| Modeling for Memory
Being able to develop functional models should be as common as
reading, writing and arithmetic. By creating models of reality
= artistic representations, where they are better art insofar as
they are more pragmatic, I became able to grow my mind - my
sculpture stayed intact while I dealt with other things. MOREOVER,
Mom was able to tour everything that is meaningful for her, every
day, by looking at our several models, and the comprehensive model
which integrates them all. Models include music, theatre,
gardening, contact improv dance, and business.

| Doomed to TV?
Sometimes as a caregiver I felt I had to find something on TV to
entertain mom (or something in the video store or on the
internet). 
Here's how I got out of that rut.
