"I didn’t know he’d done a programme on this, thanks I’ll make sure I catch it 
Well worth watching although very sad. Somethings however have to be seen as it can affect us all.x"
It is a very sad condition, insightful programmes can help us understand and cope as part of a support network x |

No need to apologise..
Probably I might need to.
Dementia is a disease no one wants or for close ones to suffer from..
Many soccer players from earlier era's have suffered and are suffering from playing with and heading heavier balls in a bygone age..
My response was a lighthearted dig in that you ladies are of an age where you probably didn't partake in soccer.
So the only time you may have "headed balls" is by over enthusiastically indulging in a 69..
Not very good was it.

"It was a joking enquiry...
Dont tell me it's not for discussion on a open forum...
Bo didderley probably didn't write about your particular hill then"
I have no interest in discussing it joking or otherwise. End of conversation. |

"Heart breaking condition for which there is no cure and on the rise. "
Just watched it... a very well rounded take on it from all points. Thanks again for the heads up x |

Last weeks episode is worth watching too. Focused on a lovely family where the man developed dementia in his 40's. |

When I was a psych nurse student I had a placement on a dementia ward... heartbreaking.
A woman late 30s was one
One of the saddest things was a man who’s wife visited every day and her hubby started to not recognise her as his wife, she was familiar to him but he had a friend another woman with dementia and they always walked holding hands and he introduced her to his wife as his love - no clue what he had done wrong... I watched her heartbreak and she sobbed n sobbed.
How hard would that be, I never forgot it x |

I'm filling up reading that.
Friend worked on a dementia ward. One wee lady had reverted back to thinking she was a young girl and insisted she had a dolly whenever she sat in her chair.
It really is heartbreaking. |
