SUPPORT FOR CARERS / FAMILY MEMBERS OF PEOPLE WITH DEMENTIA OR ALZHEIMERS

[kitkat59]

For all of you out there who are coping with the very real challenges and heartache of watching a loved one struggle with dementia or Alzheimers, or for those of you who have recently been diagnosed, there is a wonderful closed Facebook group called Memory People. The support is incredible, and there are so many members, who are always ready and willing to share advice and experiences to help anyone who is struggling to cope. It was started by a gentleman who was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimers some years ago, and who has since written a book to help raise awareness about this terrible disease.

Thank you. It is a horrible disease and support and information is always welcome, especially from people who are/have been through it with a loved one.
Happy New Year to everyone.
