The Sunday Post (Dundee)

Thank you Dione

-

PUTTING into words how it feels to watch a loved one with dementia is certainly no easy task.

Over the years, I have watched my husband go through the stages of this cruel disease. The man I married has changed drasticall­y since being diagnosed with vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s nearly six years ago.

He no longer recognises myself or our two daughters, but we visit regularly.

Thank you Dione for your excellent recent essay in The Sunday Post – I do hope it was read by many young people, adults and carers.
