Why on earth would I do this

Sunday 1st Nov
Yes, why on earth would I do this! 

Especially when I’m still recovering from an operation I had on both my feet and ankles.  However swimming and aqua physio has been a very positive activity in strengthening my body and taking the weight off.  Unfortunately it is not safe for me to run yet but have been given the okay to swim. Even if it’s with a pool noodle or float. 

Which only makes this a good challenge for me personally and physically. 

The reason I am doing this, is in memory of the loved ones I have lost who battled with  dementia. Last week we lost a family member who did suffer from dementia . 

Also doing it for my family and friends’s loved ones that are currently battling with Dementia or a form of it, like Alzheimer’s. Unfortunately they require to be in a care facility to receive that 24/7 care. 

It has been hard to see  those battling with dementia. Especially when their memories or the knowledge of who they are, their family and friends are fading away or are getting  lost. 

It has been heart breaking to see a loved one start to Struggle to express themselves or  articulate a sentence, because of the dementia. 

I AM DOING IT FOR THEM. I AM DOING IT FOR THE NURSES AND  SPECIALISTS THAT FIGHTING  and TRYING TO MAKE A CHANGE .
