I think me and Mum only started hugging in the last few months. We were never a ‘huggy ’ familyMy mum has never really liked animals or pets but she was at a garden centre with a friend and started raving about how cute a small fluffy toy sheep was. Totally not in character. She also hugs people now, she would never have done that previously.
Thank you. When Mum has been like she has today you would never know she had the diagnosis - only this evening has her speech deteriorated and her repetition / confusion increasedOh bless your mum. I have been watching todays events. Just to say a huge big good luck for tomorrow and your mum, I hope she settles and just takes it in her stride xxx
Thank you. I think Mum realises that she will have some company there rather than just sitting at home on her ownGood luck for tom @Bikerbeth , hope it goes as well as possible .

I must admit I am feeling incredibly lucky mainly because Mum has generally been so positive.Just been catching up @Bikerbeth . Well done it all seems to have gone really smoothly. I am so pleased for you that mum has settled well. Now you can relax a little knowing she is safe, looked after and happy.
I was quite surprised she joined in - I did not think they were her kind of thing’. As she had said to me earlier that she did not know what she was going to do all day I was so glad she gave both activities ago. I must admit I enjoyed the ‘play your cards right’ as it was just such a lovely atmosphereGlad your mum has taken to it, hopefully she will settle in now. The activities sound good and great your mum joins in
