Day 28: Dementia Awareness Month 2014
Our dreams are stolen
By the world of dementia
One by one they go
With losses so great
So many hidden from you
We must cry alone
So small yet so sad
Tragic incremental deaths
Of all our functions
One day they are there
The next day they start to fade
Disappearing dreams
…..good stuff..Kate…..

How do we square the losses of dementia with getting rid of the stigma?

No idea Alison… but I do believe we need to be balanced in talking about it. For example, when some of us talk about living well, we are told we are living in denial, or we are lucky. Of course, there are daily ups and downs of living with dementia, and it is worth sharing them all if we are going to share them at all… IMHO only of course! x
