Very helpful for our relationship with a friend
My family is dealing with this. We are not the primary caregiver, but we are closely involved and have been for the last several years. What I find most helpful is that it helps you get a deeper sense of dementia and the way it progresses. This definitely is helpful to processing the emotional journey of staying connected to the person, giving you a sense of the path you are traveling and will travel, and feels helpful in your effort to support the person with dementia (and their primary care giver).
