Stories of experience
Curious about the experiences of BBrain users? Below, informal carers and people with dementia, acquired brain injury or other cognitive challenges share their personal stories.
Joke continues to pursue her hobby
Joke gives gym classes to the residents of the complex where she lives.
"It keeps us all moving. But if you want to schedule those exercise classes, it's useful to know what day it is.''
Ineke has early dementia and is learning to tell time again
''I am very easily disoriented due to my early dementia, both during the day and at night. BBrain's basic analogue clock is so clear that I can quickly find the time and date.
It has made me a lot calmer in the house, and outside the house I am slowly but surely starting to recognise the time on church bells and other clocks. I still find it difficult to read the time on watches, but there must be something left to learn.''
From France to Guadeloupe at the touch of a button
Catherine video calls from France with her mother in Guadeloupe:
''I think I was the first to ask if it is possible to use the BBrain Family in Guadeloupe, an archipelago in the Caribbean Sea. That's where my 86-year-old mother lives. I live on the mainland in France. So we live at a huge distance from each other.
Via the BBrain Family I can talk to her and see how her health is. That reassures me more than talking on the phone.
The device is very intuitive, mum can handle it perfectly. She is very happy with it and I also experience more moments of happiness!
