thank you
I thought I would be blasted for my post saying it only showed the brink of the horrors. Thank you for your support. Chris was and is a truly brave man and I extend my deepest sympathies to his family. However, when I think of how distressed my own father was, the public, after watching this, may get the impression it is a disease that can be lived through. I truly do not believe this. I know it is heart breaking on a,daily basis for a sufferer watching it unfold. I lost my dad five months,ago and still am in shock at what he went through and I always,will be. Leaving the story where it was,at the point where Chris was,about to enter the latter stages wasn't realistic. My dad couldn't even walk, get words out, go toilet, eat but he was aware,enough to know what was happening and would cry a lot. My mum was,his main carer and she went through it with him, as did I who stayed with him for hours,every day for years. What about when they are paranoid and,delusional as in lewy bodies? When they try to kill themselves? When they are,so wretched they cant even get their own body into bed and fall constantly. Let the public see that then maybe such awareness raising will do some good for these people and their families xx
