You as the West Portland caregiver can be filled with joy to watch as your loved one smiles and brightens the room as if hearing stories as if for the first time. Smiles and laughter relieve stresss, which in turn relaxes a person. When a person suffering from Alzheimer’s has a momentary reprieve from stress, their memory heightens. As the old saying goes, laughter really is the best medicine.
