Tears of Laughter

Tears of Laughter is a resource designed to encourage families affected by dementia to talk about and share the funny and random things their loved one with dementia does using storytelling prompt dice to help trigger these funny and nicer stories. After a story is shared, it is treasured in a family-shared journal, ultimately creating a personal journal of nicer memories during a tough time. This resource is somewhere to escape the darkness of dementia for a moment and is a space where a family can reflect on the lighter memories, rather than the darker ones.
