Playing Sea Hero Quest helps scientists learn about dementia.
Ahoy Cap’n! Ahoy Mateys! Pirates all of us, navigating the sometimes treacherous waters of life, let us set our sails on helping scientists steer us away from dementia!
This game has me hooked (Yo! Ho! Ho!) because its FUN and its FREE. Better still, it makes me feel virtuous for fiddling with my phone. Every time any of us downloads and plays it, we help everyone!
The game tracks how we navigate memory and learning. This video explains it way better:
Happiness Between Tails blog/podcast speaks to and from the heart. It connects lovers — of pets, authors, reading — and of my still-unreleased novels. “Flamenco + the Sitting Cat” and “Tango + the Sitting Cat,” are my love letters to all who fear they're too odd, too damaged, too old, too whatever to find love and happiness with or without a partner.

Definite going to look into that one. At the moment I’m hooked at 8 balls pool 🙂

I just can’t get into computer games, even the ones said to be healthy.
I am writing a book about a family placing their mother who suffers from Alzheimer’s into a memory care residence.
No, it isn’t painful because I’m not basing it on my mother’s life at all. I won’t use her as a character in a story because she is still alive but cannot advocate for herself. I’ve walked a careful line to avoid writing about anyone who might recognize themself in my book.
let me know what you think – I played it a bit, loved it, then accidentally deleted it from my phone yesterday. now am having trouble figuring out how to reinstall it. my husband enjoys it too
