This made me well up. My mum is on the cusp of being diagnosed with dementia. 13 years after her father, my grandad, died with it. A lovely reminder of the importance of being kind and humane throughout what is to come. Thank you
I don’t always find the time Philippa, to read EVERY article you post on here, but getting into the upper 80s in September, I have been prompted to read today’s item: “Love will Find a Way”.
I particularly liked the feature on Jon Snow, and his ‘journey’ dealing with dementia.
So far I think I am free from this phenomenon, but who knows what the future holds for us!
What a beautiful and thoughtful article, Philippa. I found it very insightful , and will remember what you wrote when meeting people with dementia.
Thankyou x
Thanks so much for commenting Ruth, that is lovely. Best of wishes Philippa

Thanks Chris and you are quite right we can’t know. Best of wishes Philippa
