Chi conosce il peso delle parole
dà grande valore al silenzio
perché le parole sono come pietre scagliate
che non possono essere ritirate indietro
e quando sono parole-contro gli altri
feriscono chiunque le ascolti:
il silenzio genera parole sapienti,miti e pacifiche!
A full house in the @InterdemEurope session on social health, some people even standing at the back of the room. It shows how important and how much interest there is around this concept #28AEC
Back from the inspiring #28AEC conference in Barcelona where I presented for #aimareggioemilia a poster about our #seasideweek: people with dementia and their carers who go to the seaside for a week’s holiday once a year with café volunteers #28AEC
I don’t want to move to an institution - I want to stay with my own tribe - I understand dementia villages but there are no diabetic villages... @rochfordbrennan the most powerful and moving presentation I have ever heard. Motivating and inspiring. Thank you #28AEC#rights
#28AEC@JamesPickett12 uses a brilliant but brutal way to demonstrate the under investment in dementia research. This shows when in the year the cost of dementia outstrips the research investment. In Scotland we won't even be home from the Hogmany party.
Di ritorno dalla conferenza a Barcellona di @AlzheimerEurope dove ho presentato il poster sul progetto #seasideweek di #aimareggioemilia attivo dal 2008: una settimana di vacanza all’anno per le persone con demenza e le loro famiglie assieme ai volontari dei #caffè! #28AEC
Risk of mortality higher with long term antipsychotic use - over 42 weeks 60% alive with placebo, only 30% alive with an antipsychotic @Clive_Ballard#28AEC
Clive Ballard, Professor @UniofExeter speaking at the @AlzheimerEurope Conference “Making dementia a European priority” #28AEC about pharmacological options for the treatment of behavioural symptoms of #dementia
“Without carers governments would not be able to implement their dementia plans & strategies”. Chris Lynch from @AlzDisInt on the scale of carers’ work and why their voice needs to be heard. #28AEC@AlzheimerEurope
Helen Rochford-Brennan just saying 'there's nothing #dementia friendly about #airports' having had a poor experience via 3 airports on route to #28AEC much more to be done by the #aviation sector @alisonfwarren
Just finished chairing a session at #28AEC where room voted overwhelmingly for ‘Brain Health’ rather than ‘Dementia Prevention’ - same destination but more ‘engaging’ journey. @CenDemPrevent@AD_PREVENT - might need to change our name!!!!
