It should be simple. But it wasn’t simple. I was in the Virtual Dementia Tour, hosted by the Kokomo-Howard County Public Library South Branch, on April 14. The Virtual Dementia Tour is an immersive experience that simulates the difficulty associated with completing simple tasks when suffering with dementia. It was developed by P.K. Beville, founder of the nonprofit Second Wind Dreams, through a scientifically-proven method, according to secondwind.org. KHCPL staff overseeing the tour received certified training to do so. I wore tinted sunglasses with a black ring in the center of the lens, spiked insoles in my shoes and thick, knitted gloves with the pointer and middle fingers stitched together.
