When life throws you a curved ball never give up on yourself……2 Honorary Doctorates and 2 Sunday Times Best sellers all since a diagnosis of dementia. You never know what you can achieve unless you give it a go……you only get one chance at life, LIVE IT, don’t give up ☺️

If you haven’t already I would read @WendyPMitchell’s books which I found really helpful when my husband was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s. She’s living with it herself. Good luck.

I knew what dementia was when I started reading this book - by the time I’d finished I understood dementia so much better. Big difference! The knowledge and insight you share on this subject @WendyPMitchell is so valuable
