A Day That Feels Like Something

My [Relationship] [Initials] ([Their Diagnosis]) spends most days [Current Day]. Before dementia they were [Who They Were Before]. What they can still do: [Can Still]. What frustrates them now: [What Frustrates Them]. Help me: 1) suggest ten activities matched to their abilities and their old identity — things that feel like purpose or pleasure, not busywork or 'crafts', 2) for each, tell me how to set it up so they can succeed without help and how to quietly help if they get stuck, 3) build a sample day with a rhythm — something active, something restful, something social, something outside — with rough times, 4) tell me how to invite them in without it sounding like a task ('Would you help me with this?' beats 'Do you want to?'), 5) give me a way to tell what's working when they can't tell me in words. Respect who they were. No condescension.
