For My Dad ❤️

Wednesday 8th Apr Firstly I can’t even believe I’m writing any of this. My dad was diagnosed with vascular dementia last year. After going into hospital for a different illness on the 3rd of January this year, his condition has sadly deteriorated significantly, and he is currently still in hospital, awaiting a place in a nursing home. You hear stories of people living with and dealing with dementia but until you experience it yourself you truly can’t understand just how heartbreaking it is. Seeing my dad change from one person to another in a blink of an eye is something I don’t think I will ever get my head around, but we just have to take it one day at a time and support each other as much as we can. If I can do anything, even just a tiny bit, to help someone not have to go through what we are as a family then I will. This is why I’ve decided to try and raise as much money as I can to help support this fantastic charity ❤️ Share
