I went from teaching in a traditional preschool to teaching in a Montessori 3-6 classroom; now I use those same Montessori principles to enrich the lives of people with Alzheimer’s Disease. I volunteer at a local AD day care, and I take private clients for one-on-one sessions. My goal is to tickle out what is still there for each person and stimulate meaningful interactions, to improve their engagement with the world on a given day.
I also have a progressive hearing loss and wore hearing aids beginning in 1992. My hearing deteriorated to the point that I got a cochlear implant in my left ear in March 2006 and in my left ear July 2008.
David just figured out how to set this up to automatically post to my own webpage. I'm looking forward to posting my cochlear implant progress reports here, as well as various oddments about our family.
