Hi Jan,
I enjoyed it as a means to an end.
I also enjoyed listening to the reminiscencing, as people who had looked at me with blank faces, showed personalities which, to my shame, I hadn`t given them credit for.
The other carers, except one, went off for a chat among themselves, but I`m just pleased Dhiren will come with me, I don`t want to spoil it by going off as soon as we get there. I`m quite happy to support him as I know how difficult he finds it.
It was different at the hospital. This group meets in a cafe.
His long term memory is affected now. He asked me today why everyone is wearing red flowers.
