stranger tides and changing tides

 So the strangest things can happen to a person, I work for a senior living facility in the advance dementia unit.  well most of these patients are in pain and can't recall memories or even their own names. On February 1st 2023 a patient was angry after waking up, she was screaming and pushing her walker into people, this is scary for me as I have never saw anything like this before. It was really stressing me out and making it hard for me to concentrate on my work.  I know they all mean well the nurses and aides, but in some situations you have to just grin and bare it. They took the patient into isolation, and I left the area to get a breather too!!  After that I went back to work cleaning up the household, and preparing lunch for the residents, the patient was in a much better calm mood also.  It took me a while to clean up lunch but when I was finished I was on my way home, it was a great feeling to be out of there, where I can focus on my own family and doing things that is meant for us to survive.  All of the kids came home on the bus, and I was surprised because I thought that they were staying after school. I was glad to see my kids and talk about the day with them, we had a short dinner tacos, then two kids went to bible study, Casey and I stayed home while Randy took the other kids to church.  

An absolutely amazing muscle the brain is.  I've learned so much about the brain, I'm not a surgeon by any means but with Nami of the greater toledo area, I learned about the cognitive side of the brain certain things about it that is wonderful all of the cells and the different parts of the brain. for instance,

 It has three main sections:

• Cerebrum: Your cerebrum interprets sights, sounds and touches. It also regulates emotions, reasoning and learning. ...
• Cerebellum: Your cerebellum maintains your balance, posture, coordination and fine motor skills. ...
• Brainstem: Your brainstem regulates many automatic body functions.
• 
  

The frontal lobes are important for voluntary movement, expressive language and for managing higher level executive functions. Executive functions refer to a collection of cognitive skills including the capacity to plan, organize, initiate, self-monitor and control one's responses in order to achieve a goal.

Hippocampus is a complex brain structure embedded deep into temporal lobe. It has a major role in learning and memory.

The parietal lobe is one of the major lobes in the brain, roughly located at the upper back area in the skull. It processes sensory information it receives from the outside world, mainly relating to touch, taste, and temperature. Damage to the parietal lobe may lead to dysfunction in the senses

The occipital lobes sit at the back of the head and are responsible for visual perception, including color, form and motion. Damage to the occipital lobe can include: Difficulty with locating objects in environment.

since were on the topic of dementia.

Dementia is not a specific disease but is rather a general term for the impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities. Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia. Though dementia mostly affects older adults, it is not a part of normal aging.

Frontotemporal dementia is an umbrella term for a group of brain disorders that primarily affect the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. These areas of the brain are generally associated with personality, behavior and language. In frontotemporal dementia, portions of these lobes shrink (atrophy).
