John constantly misplaces his wallet and gets upset when he can't find it. I've tried to convince him that he doesn't need to carry a wallet anymore because I'm taking care of the bills and expenses, but this doesn't satisfy him.One day when John was getting quite agitated about his lost wallet and I couldn't find it anywhere, I came across an old wallet that had belonged to our son. I put a couple of dollars in the wallet and gave it to John -- and he was delighted.I realized it wasn't that he needed his wallet, but that he needed a wallet. Having money in his pocket meant a lot to John, especially because he'd grown up poor. Now I keep extra wallets on hand for whenever his gets lost, and we're both much happier.A Memory BookMy dad has Alzheimer's and we've discovered how useful a memory book can be.I've put family stories and pictures into a nice album.

Here are some productive ideas.Lend a supportive earIt's simple but critical: offer emotional support to the person's primary caregiver.Caregiverstress is a constant threat. Acknowledge to him that it's a very real problem and address the issue before it morphs into burnout.
