I have put the details of my book on the Book thread
but I am feeling very excited as its now available on Amazon as a paperback, large print and kindle
I recently managed to see my wonderful Gp 'Dr W' who left our surgery and I was heartbroken as she was so brilliant.She was so helpful and supportive and is now temporarily a locum Gp at our surgery that we changed to when we moved house.
Just before I got my book published I talked about my subcortical vascular dementia diagnosis. Although my symptoms remain the same as I haven't deteriorated she now wonders if my illness is stroke related. It made me feel as though I had been a bit of a fraud being on this thread. Irrespective of what the diagnosis might be I have lived under the cosh and stigma of dementia and have all the emotional baggage that goes with it and the insight of having memory loss, as well as caring for a friend with early onset Alzheimer's. I so want to use this experience to benefit others. I still have cognitive impairment and will continue to support the Alzheimers Society!
