'Fun facts about dementia'

According to Emma, her daughter Evelyn shared a significant insight about dementia, saying that individuals living with the condition can experience severe dehydration. Emma was curious about how Evelyn acquired this knowledge, and the young girl revealed that she had been researching "fun facts about dementia" during her free time at school. "Now that's not funny, but it's kind of funny, and she really is her father's child, because these two love some random facts. So I said to her, 'Evelyn, we will always make sure daddy has a bottle of water in hand. Thank you for letting me know. But that is the most loving and compassionate thing that you can do is to be curious and educate yourself on your dad's disease'."

She said that it is important for "caregivers as friends, family ... to educate ourselves about our loved one's disease so we can best show up for them and support them in the best way possible." Emma wrapped up, saying, "So keep educating yourself, stay curious and remember to hydrate your loved ones."

'What a sweet girl!'

Many commenters shared their support, including Bruce Willis' 31-year-old daughter Scout, who he shares with his ex-wife Demi Moore. "Omg Evelyn!!!!!!! that story made me a puddle of tenderness !" Scout wrote. One user shared their own experience, saying, "An extremely smart young lady, it makes my heart full she is educating herself. My Mama had Alzheimer’s for 14 years, dehydration can lead to a lot of issues including uti’s, becoming light headed and can cause falls. My heart goes out to all who have loved ones with dementia." Another wrote, "Now I’m in a puddle. What a beautiful child. My heart. you’re a pretty incredible woman. God bless you and your family Emma." "What a sweet girl! So young and yet mature and thoughtful enough to be researching her Dad’s condition. I can understand why you were a puddle when she told you!" wrote a third. A fourth added, "They will literally forget to drink… it’s so good that Evelyn did this… kudos Evelyn! Keep educating yourself! Hugs to all of you."
