Wedding day part 1 with Alexa

News update from Alexa shared sad news from Cuba (plane crash) and Texas (school shootings) as well as Princes Harry and William walking about last night.

This was Alexa’s weather update.

Played White Wedding and my First Wedding.

Dementia and Alexa

After just getting Alexa and writing a series of prompts for Lent about dementia, this is interesting. I wrote prompts about setting phone reminders and getting a daily newspaper to remind of date… this is all stuff Alexa can do if know what to ask! Since yesterday, I have had Alexa play music, read news, tell me when next Scunthorpe match is, but she is refusing to understand and tell me date of league 1 play Off final.

 

 

As I go further along my Alzheimer’s path, I’m always looking for ways to make my life a little less complicated. When I find something that works, I put on my Dementia Advocate hat (yes I have one but only wear it in private) and share it with as many people as I can. I know that it may not work for everyone but if it works for a few, then . . . HOORAY!
