The current challenge is how to 'help' when the person is not aware they have a problem.

Thus far the internet has yielded too general offerings.

Just trying to take advantage of early stage assessment means/experience(s) that may be available.

We fully understand the risk of flak/crap that sometimes come from such an open forum. However over the past 20 years....we have experienced the value added that is usually made available
here in TV.

The villages health care has an excellent dementia support group led by Melissa Denham. Also there are videos by Deepa Snow that deal with alot of different subject's on how to deal with someone who has dementia. I also recommend a book called " The 36 hour day". Hope this helps.
