Such an incredible story. This young man has a rare level of mindfulness and compassion, and I hope it leads to change in care homes. He’s also given tips to families on how to help.

Research has already shown that having younger people and children around can improve quality of life for residents, yet the system is too often impersonal and clinical.

I’m a retired early 63 old. I’ve got MS. Sure I’d work if someone would bloody help me and my husband with the care of my 86 year old demented dad. But we can’t work and care for him without help cos it’s too fecking exhausting.

In my search for support for my overwhelming parental care issues I booked a 40 minute virtual call with an Admiral Nurse with UK It was such a supportive experience, felt truly listened to. I really needed that space to talk, to cry and to feel less alone with it all

Latest is he is asleep with the magic electric blanket. I have the heating pad. He will wake up anything from once to six or more times. If I am properly sleepy I won't stop him coming in with me. No point as, awake in his own room, he usually causes an exhausting wreckage. There may be brown stains in either bed

My husband hadn't changed clothes in 5 days. Persuaded him to change t-shirt and jumper, can't make him take his trousers off, he's too big for physical force. Likely his pants are soiled. Nothing I can do.

In the absence of a cure for , should we even diagnose?
Yes: access to is improved
But also: more caregiver stress, more disagreement in the families who care
