Individuals with dementia can express symptoms which interfere with their communication

skills. Word salad is the brain scramble that happens when persons with dementia use substitute words and phrases for what they are trying to say.

The word salad “Wahootoos” is an example of a word taken from a place of frustration and disorder, and turning it into something useful and beautiful that honors the personhood of the individual.

 For Her Royal Highness

the

Duchess

of Cambridge

Her name is Kate, for Catherine

from the town of Reading, in Berkshire,

but she also lived in Bucklebury

before she became a fashion

accessory buyer.

Born of Carole and Michael Middleton,

right from the start she had style.

Although when she was in boarding school

nasty boys bullied her for awhile.

Always smiling and in control

she seems to float from place to place;

even though paparazzi chase her

it doesn't change

the countenance of her face.

Wow - she's really something special,

she never snaps at anyone.

Even when people crowd the prince

she looks like she's having fun.

But what's even more important

than fashion, fun and hats,

is her kind and caring nature -

in her heart is where it's at.

She even loves animals!

Recently adopting a pet;

replacing the Princes' dog Widgeon

they welcomed Lupo

onto the set.
