EP 105 :: Rebuilding Connections One LEGO Brick at a Time :: Loretta Veney
This week Bobbi & Mike talk with author, inspirational speaker and caregiver, Loretta Veney. When caring for her mother with dementia, Loretta found that her mother had more lucid moments when they built with LEGOs together. So, Loretta took these valuable lessons and developed LEGO themed events for caregivers and those with dementia. Her story is one of resilience, forgiveness and meaningfulness, and infectious joy will have you rolling with laughter, right along with Bobbi & Mike.
“When you find something that works, you share it!” Those are the words of Loretta Veney, selectee for Trailblazer of the Year by Johns Hopkins Medicine in 2019, which she earned for developing a system using a simple child’s toy to help rebuild lost connections between those with dementia and those who care for them. So, join Bobbi & Mike to learn about Loretta and her amazing journey of innovation and perseverance.
