This DVD documents a final life struggle called resolution, which involves very old people diagnosed Alzheimer’s-type dementia.
- In PHASE 1. Mal-orientation – the person is mostly oriented to time, place and person.
- In PHASE 2. Time Confusion – the person is not oriented to time and place
- In PHASE 3. Repetitive Motion – the person uses movements instead of speech to express human needs.
- In PHASE 4. Vegetation – the person has minimal movement, blank expression, no speech.
In the final stage of resolution, buried emotions surface. The very old struggle to express themselves and need someone to listen with empathy: to “Validate” them.
