Saw Ash again today. Was really looking forward to it and it lived up to expectations so that's ok. memoryfortwo.com/2022/11/anothe… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers #AlzheimersDisease

How do you know when it's time for professional care? I thought I would know, then I thought I'd never know so I thought you might like to read about the process we went through. I hope it helps. memoryfortwo.com/2022/11/the-ro… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

This is so absolutely important. #Autism #ADHD #Supports #Scaffolding #auspol #politas #TasEd

Emotions are often difficult to deal with but what if yours aren't what you or anyone else is expecting? It's in the blog. memoryfortwo.com/2022/11/how-sh… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

New 2022 figures show a rise of around 28 300 new cases in young onset dementia in the UK, taking the estimated total to 70 800 dementiauk.org/new-figures-ad…

Christmas can never be a good time for everyone but here, for the first time in years, I don't have the worry that I'm going to get it wrong and all that would entail. It makes such a difference. memoryfortwo.com/2022/12/its-be… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

Just when I think I've got this new life cracked grief comes out of nowhere. Not for the first time, obviously, but today it got me thinking ..... memoryfortwo.com/2022/12/grief.… #dementia #carers #caregiving #alzheimers #Grief

Today's visit to Ash seems to have put my emotions back on track, for now anyway. memoryfortwo.com/2022/12/feelin… #dementia #carers #caregiving #caregivers #Alzheimers

Does anyone know how to inform the DWP of a change in circumstances regarding PIP that doesn't involve the telephone. I can't find an address or email and no-one answers the phone.

Really sorry for the silence but am hoping I'm back on track. If you're still out there and want to read about life after dementia then I'm happy to share it all with you. memoryfortwo.com/2023/03/a-year… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

Am trying very hard, after a long break, to keep the blog up to date. Today's post is a little more about Ash and a little less about me. memoryfortwo.com/2023/03/more-a… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

A trip to the garden centre with Ash today turns my hair a little whiter but I've learnt from the experience I promise. memoryfortwo.com/2023/03/panic-… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

Today I finished clearing out Ash's clothes. I thought it would be traumatic but actually it had the opposite effect. memoryfortwo.com/2023/03/a-clea… #dementia #carers #caregivers #caregiving #AlzheimersDisease #Alzheimers

Friends reminded me at the weekend of a life I'd forgotten. memoryfortwo.com/2023/03/my-soc… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

Just when my life is improving beyond expectation something comes along which shows how long dementia's reach really is. memoryfortwo.com/2023/04/dement… #dementia #carers #caregiving #Alzheimers

Can you believe it's almost 5 years since I started writing the blog? For now though this is it, the final post of Memory for Two for you to read. Hopefully you think it was worth the ride. memoryfortwo.com/2023/04/thank-… #dementia #Alzheimers #carers #caregiving

Currently juggling a job with Mum and husband in 2 separate care homes. Tues and Weds this week I have work meetings plus visit to mum for her birthday and chiropodist for v. unwilling husband. All organised and then the chirpodist's day is changed. Head about to explode.

According to the lady handling my complaint at DWP the telephone lines never disconnect when people phone them. I beg to differ. What's your experience? #DWP #dementia #carers #PIP
