[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 399281, member: 3419"] Take a book off the shelf? I wondered the same thing! LOL! But knowing how short their attention spans are, as Janet pointed out, is helpful. My dad has Alzheimer's, and he is sharp one day, agitated the next, sleepy the next, alert the next, it's never the same two days in a row. So if a resident does try to grab a book, chances are they won't remember it long enough to tell another patient, or to remember it themselves. So did the Christmas paper keep your mom out of the fridge? [/QUOTE]
