After a positive time with Mum last week, Andrew talks about the loneliness of spending a day with someone who sleeps most of the time and barely speaks. Because of her declining mobility, Mum now has two carers for each of the day's four visits. But mother and son do get out of the house for a short drive. Mum and Me: The Dementia Diary was originally broadcast on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Leeds.
