Just to say I am so proud of our nursing profession and all we do for the population, often at detriment to our own health and well being. Let’s hope the public recognition continues after we have reached the end of the pandemic. @DementiaUK

This poem was written by Patricia Godfrey who cared for her husband, Howard, who had Lewy body dementia. They benefited from the expert guidance and support of their Admiral Nurse, Debbie Bebbington. For Qs or concerns about dementia call our Helpline: 0800 888 6678 💜 @ChapelDrc

For a few days, I've been feeling 'weird' not ill. I've enjoyed online AA. I've done my will. I have done an inventory of my life, almost discounting completely any value of what I've ever done. I'm feeling disorientated, but it could be the effects of the pandemic?
