Author · Founder, Generations Thriving

Virginia brings a deeply personal and professional passion to caregiving, guiding others through the emotional and practical aspects of dementia care. Her experience as a family caregiver inspired Journaling for Dementia, a heartfelt tool for families to reflect, heal, and thrive together.

Why I Wrote This

My journey as a caregiver for loved ones with dementia showed me how isolating and overwhelming this path can feel. I created Journaling for Dementia so families would have a compassionate place to record the details of care, but also the moments of connection, gratitude, and hope. My prayer is that this journal gives you strength for today and gentle encouragement for tomorrow.
