Hi all,
Not sure if there is still anyone about from the 2012 - 2016 period, other than maybe the mods (hello mods!), but this forum was a true lifeline for us during the worst of dementia's ravages, until MIL finally went into care at the end of 2016.
Just stopping by to say that our own journey has now come to an end - tonight she passed away in hospital from the coronavirus (confirmed via testing), which was contracted in her residential care home. Not the end we would have wanted for her by a long stretch - we couldn't even go to hold her hand towards the end.
Am not religious by any means, but God rest her poor soul - and forgive me all the angry and obnoxious words I spouted on here at the time.
Wishing all the best to all still embroiled in the dementia journey.
MM xx
