A busy day at Mum's for son Andrew - with a bonus role play session in the middle!
Andrew EdwardsAvailable for over a year
Carolyn, who's 85, has mixed dementia: Alzheimer's and vascular. Her son Andrew describes a typical day with his Mum. It involves visits from the chiropodist and hairdresser, ordering her pureed food, sorting out medicines, picking up incontinence pants and pads and chasing up her new glasses. But today there's a slightly surreal interruption - a role play session for work! Mum and Me: The Dementia Diary was originally broadcast on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Leeds.
