RE: SibStar: Debit card and app for families living with Dementia
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Dementia is a very unfortunate disease because it results in the loss of a loved one's personality (or one's own when the time comes).
I have had my grandmother with this disease and she started forgetting things or losing track of space such as going to another room or even being about to go outside when she really wanted to go to the bathroom.
In more severe cases it tends to hallucination, which if I know correctly, is called senile dementia.
The implementation of this card and the administration through an APP could improve the way in which this situation is addressed, which is very helpful because it relieves some of the concern of family members who must care for a person with this disease.
So sorry about your grandma suffering dementia. Its actually a tough situation when they act weird and couldnt do basic normal stuffs. Its great to have services like this Sibstar which makes fintech more inclusive for people with special needs.
I admire and encourage people like you as you help family members with special needs try to live a normal life. Its always difficult for everyone - especially the care-giver.
