@hellyarrj Exactly same thing happened to me- mid comment 😂

Pleased to publish this series of 3 vlogs, which explores what happens when a person living with dementia needs to move into a care home. We discuss the complexity, the emotional experience of families, and explore the impact of the changed relationship.

As Carl Jung quoted - “ Know all the theories, learn all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul be just another human soul “ and in my words “ We are only a flicker away from not just our own vulnerability but the vulnerability we see, hear and feel in others too “
