My mother got dementia at the young age of 64, i saw the woman that i knew as my mother change into someone that was completely different, this was hard enough, as time went on it just got worse as dementia took over and i was greiving for her even though she hadnt died.

For seven years i watched her change into a person that she would not of wanted to be, i even started work in the care home that we had to put her in for her own saftey and well being, at times this was very hard to see my mother lose so much weight thorugh not eating and in her last days not drinking.

My mother ended up passing away to a disease that is cruel for both them and their families and i hope that in time a cure is found.
