Hi all,
I recently received some e-mails from the Alzheimers Society relating to several issues that effect sufferers and their families. I added my name and address to them all and sent them on to local papers and MPs.
One of the campaigns was for fully funded healthcare, a letter appeared in several of our local papers and as a result I received a letter from a lady who had looked after her aunt. Her aunt had worked all her life and bought her home. She had to move into a care home and all her savings went to pay for her care, when they had gone her home was sold and used, now she has nothing left and has to pay for her care from her pension. I wrote back to this lady and advised her to come onto this site for some advice as lots of people were very helpful to me when I came here. I also gave her the number for her local branch incase she didn't have access to the net.
I hope I helped her as I have been helped by others on this site.
Happy New Year to all.
