Henry's great-grandma, Grandma Ellen, calls him "Little One" because she forgets his name. She forgets a lot of other things too and doesn't have many memories left because she has something called dementia. Henry's Gram says, "That's okay, Henry! WE know who Grandma Ellen is even if she doesn't always know us! Grandma Ellen is losing her MEMORIES, but she loves the MOMENTS because they happen right now!" So Gram and Henry spend many Tuesdays with Grandma Ellen and the other grandmas and grandpas who live in her care centre, and they make every moment count! Tuesdays with Henry...Making Moments with Grandma Ellen is a simple story that demonstrates how parents can involve their young children when visiting loved ones who are often lonely, lost and confused due to Alzheimer's and dementia . With the focus on making "moments" rather than "memories", there is a gentle reminder that even those who struggle to remember can still enjoy simple experiences and visits where they feel included and loved. This book includes examples of ways to "make every moment count" as well as a special section for parents to guide them in making a successful visit. Parents and children, alike will learn lessons about the beauty and value of empathy, respect and spending time with the elderly, especially those struggling with dementia.
