I only registered tonight, after searching on Google regarding a question I had on COP1 forms. I am just so annoyed I didn't find it before, when mum was in the early stage of Alzheimer's.
No, it wouldn't have cured her, but it would have been a rich source of information about the experiences of others to take in, not to mention respite for me in the late evenings at weekends when I'm at mum's place caring for her.
I've been blown away by some of the posts, and replies... which are so supportive. I guess most in here are in the same boat; either caring for a loved one with Dementia, or close to a loved one with it.
My only issue is, how am I going to find time to trawl amongst the 1,000s of invaluable posts and responses. I guess I'm not, but I will read a fair few, probably post and contribute to a fair few too.
THANK YOU TALKING POINT AND ALL CONTRIBUTORS
