You want to know what dementia is really LIKE ??

[Norrms]

This is how i spent two hours of my day today Elaine tells me ??

Such a confusing day, screaming at loved ones to put me away somewhere, head bursting with frustration,, can't concentrate, hard to make a sentence, any sentence that makes any sense, stumbling everywhere, can't hold coffee cup properly, unable to understand what's being said to me, all around me sounds 100 times louder but jumbled up, feel so helpless but also so worthless

This is my dementia for parts of my day, EVERY DAY !!!!!
