I AM POSTING THIS FROM JANICE LOW MY FRIEND AND FORMER WORK COLLEAGUE. READ AND REFLECT

Someone once said if you take care of someone with dementia you lose them more and more everyday. When they are diagnosed, when they go through different stages, when they need treatment and when they pass away. This is called “ambiguous loss”.

As the brain slowly dies, they change physically and eventually forget who their loved ones are. They can end up lying in bed, not moving and not eating or drinking.

There will be people who will scroll past this post because Dementia has not touched them. They may not know what it’s like to have a loved one who has battled or is still battling dementia.

To raise awareness of this cruel disease, I’d like my friends to put this on their page today.

Hold your finger on the post to copy and paste to your timeline.
A special thank you to anyone willing to put this on their timeline for Dementia Awareness Week. ❤️
