At @DZNE_en I was feeling a bit lonely as my pals are all at #ADPD2023 . Turns out my Mam's cousin has WRITTEN A BOOK on dementia care ft her experience, and my Great Aunty Rita @OSullivan_SA @ariana_gatt @byron_creese @UKDRI Check it out!! amazon.co.uk/Duck-Out-Water-…
The Lovely Rita was clever and creative. Over the next two weeks, I'm going to share the meaningful activities that kept her happy DESPITE living with dementia. Today it is her love for flower arranging. #meaningfulactivities #dementiacare #aduckoutofwater
