When dementia steals the ones we love BY MELONIE ROBERTS [email protected] Ruth Guzman, volunteer community educator for the Alzheimer’s Association, is no stranger to the dev- astation that comes with watching a loved one lose herself one memory at a time. Guzman became the primary caregiver to her moth- er, who had started showing signs of early onset dementia. “I took her to a neurologist,” Guzman said. “She had an MRI done on her brain, and they tested her motor skills and spatial abilities. Then we were told the only thing that we could do was keep her diabetes under control to keep brain cells from dying due to stroke.” That advice was not acceptable to Guzman. “A lot of primary care doctors do not recognize the signs of early onset dementia,” she said. “You pay the doctors. You do not have to accept what they say out of hand. You have to learn to speak up for yourself. You have to eat properly, exercise, play board games or work on puzzles to stimulate your memory and be social. Being social was difficult for my mother. She was afraid.

  • Dramaturgical Applications of Shamanic Healing for Social Change
    Dramaturgical Applications of Shamanic Healing for Social Change John Patrick Brunner, Jr. Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in the Theatre Department of the School of the Arts Columbia University April 23, 2021 As I began to formulate my thoughts around my selected thesis topic, I could not help but consider the current context and consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. While some of my friends and colleagues encouraged me to write on my vision of a post-pandemic theatre, I hesitated to do so as it is impossible to predict when this pandemic will end and where our society will be at that time. As theatres across New York and the country continue to remain closed, however, the economic and artistic toll our industry faces grows every day. Faced with a truly unprecedented crisis, a whole generation of theatre-makers will be impacted for decades to come. As a result, I feel inclined to look to the past and the origins of theatre to better articulate a vision for the future of our art form. At the center of that vision, in my opinion, there needs to be a better way to understand the stories theatre-makers put on stage and why these stories should be told. During my graduate studies I have found myself asking what we, as theatre practitioners, are missing when working on a production. I have continually felt my work, and much of the theatre in general, has been lacking something fundamental. That is not to say I have not been proud of some of my work- I certainly have- but I feel, nevertheless, something essential remains missing at the core of my various projects.
