He recounts his difficulties speaking Mandarin in school, his experiences of racial discrimination and exploitation in Taipei, and his decision to return to Orchid Island to rediscover his cultural heritage, as well as his travels to visit other Indigenous artists in places such as Greenland.

本章節透過失智症合併精神行為問題 (Behavioural and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia, BPSD) 實際生活案例，提供照顧者可能的因應策略與照顧態度。問題行為 BPSD 如果不影響日常生活，通常不建議藥物治療，重點是照顧者要能夠調整自己的心態，接受失智症者生病後和之前健康狀態的差異，盡量不要讓自己的情緒影響到失智症者。失智症者雖有類似的問題行為，然而每個案例因應與緩解問題行為的方式可能不盡相同。長時間的觀察和嘗試，找到原因並且針對原因處理通常比任何方法都有效。再者，同一套方法有時候不會每次都有用，需要準備好幾套劇本或是方法來隨機運用。整體來說，建議照顧者以同理心和耐心，細心觀察並了解失智症者過往的生活習慣、工作及家庭經驗，因為有時候問題行為的發生可能是失智症者想表達，卻無法以正確語言表達內心想法的行為表現。
