I’m so sorry, it’s such a difficult thing to navigate, both for the person and their loved ones. My dad and a couple of other close family members experienced this and it was really hard.

If your friend likes reading, could she access recorded stories? Is there someone who can take her to church if she’d like to do that?

I think just visiting when you can, and maybe taking her for a walk (if possible) or drive, if that’s an option. Just so she gets out & about a bit. Could you talk to her on the phone, too? That might help her feel more connected.
