Doctor visit

The doctor visited early this morning. He is concerned at how George has deteriorated since the Shingles and his reluctance to do anything (including getting out of bed). He is giving him some vitamins in order to try to help with the inertia. He is also having drinks of Complan to supplement his diet. Hope this does the trick.

Carers and those living with dementia often mention the isolation that happens, due to the situation, from friends and family. It is important, especially for family, to remember to keep these people in the loop, they are still part of your family.

  2. I know just what you mean Di as isolation is taking its toll here. Hope George is on the mend soon.

  3. Isn't it interesting how only people who have been in our situation can relate. It is nice to know we are all there
