Simplyhealth Great North Run 2019 · 8 September 2019 ·
I don't have one particular person to run for. I am running for everyone! I wrote my dissertation on DEMENTIA 13years ago because it touches my heart!
I work on Orthopaedic Trauma ward and most of our elderly patients have some form of DEMENTIA! It's heart-breaking to see the one you love still in front of you very much alive but the mind is gone and that person is fading away.
We are living longer nowadays, to me Dementia is a sad and devastating disease to elderly people! And some younger people get it too😥!
Alzheimer’s Society is transforming the landscape of dementia forever.Until the day we find a cure, we will create a society where those affected by dementia are supported and accepted, able to live in their community without fear or prejudice.
