Feeling so loved it’s unreal 🥰 I have created my own Alzheimer's Society Memory Walk to take place on 20th September 2020. In just 18 hours I’ve got 25 walkers and raised £210! So thankful to those who have supported me so far ❤️ #Dementia #EndDementia justgiving.com/fundraising/mw…

I’m back! My next blog is now published which covers how we received a diagnosis. I’ve had lots of questions about this so hopefully you’ll find it useful. Enjoy and I hope to continue shining a light on #FTD! #Dementia #EndFTD #FrontotemporalDementia ftdandme.co.uk/post/12-how-we…

I love how this chart shows the many different conditions which sit under the umbrella term ‘dementia’. So many need awareness raising! #Dementia #FTD #EndFTD

Time for #Blog #14. I’m talking about the present and I’ve explained how mums symptoms have changed. I found it hard writing this, it was a complete reality check. I can’t believe how quickly things have changed 😢♥️ #FTD #FrontotemporalDementia #Dementia ftdandme.co.uk/post/14-realit…

There is one simple aim with this: Connect young adults who support their parents living with dementia, to enable them to learn and support each other and just have a chat with a mate who “gets it” over their preferred drink of choice ☕️🍷🍻

Will I inherit FTD? I published a blog about late last night about waiting for the results regarding my own #genetic testing, hopefully it will give those in a similar situation some useful information 💕 #FTD #FrontotemporalDementia ftdandme.co.uk/post/15-always…

I visited mum in the care home on Saturday morning. It was the first time I've seen her properly in 2 months and it was hard. Lots had changed and there is so much I wish I had done differently. Tips for the future listed below 👇🏼 #ftd #endftd #dementia #dementiaawareness

It’s here! Check out my interview on BBC Humberside speaking all things #ftd and how I’m dealing with my #genetic results. Earlier on in the show, there’s also great info from Lucy Russell and Consultant Admiral Nurse Children & Young People! Check it out at 2:41:00 👇🏼 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…
