Good morning
We had an appointment at the memory clinic at the end of April but with covid agreed to have the diagnosis straightaway as it was going to be over the phone . That part went well and I’ve had good support but being in lockdown with no human contact I obviously am struggling now to come to terms with being a Carer. It’s my husband’s illness but it’s mine too. So the forum has frightened me as i realise how wide the diagnosis is , mixed dementia with Alzheimer’s for s fit and active 80 year old and I really don’t know where to start. A friendly voice would be a good start .
