Suffering from dementia is hard – for the patient and for their family as well. I know a woman who stood by her mentally disturbed husband strong as a rock. She told me, ‘I know who he is at his core, that’s enough for me!
Thank you so much for reading and writing such a kind comment, ‘ dear Peter!
