Sometimes you can achieve incredible things. Sometimes surviving the day is the incredible thing. Both are huge achievements. Having a diagnosis of Dementia should not be the thing to define what you can do. Well done Wendy your books are fantastic and help many people x
When life throws you a curved ball never give up on yourself……2 Honorary Doctorates and 2 Sunday Times Best sellers all since a diagnosis of dementia. You never know what you can achieve unless you give it a go……you only get one chance at life, LIVE IT, don’t give up ☺️

This is such a clear demonstration of some of the processes associated with dementia.
Have you ever wondered what happens in your brain whilst you sleep? 🌙 💤 Our researchers are trying to understand if sleep is a symptom of dementia or a potential risk factor. Join our Q&A tomorrow to unpack this question & more! Comment your questions or send us a DM.

Marathon completed. It was extremely challenging and definitely slowed towards the end (similar to the PhD) but I am very proud and grateful to all of those who sponsored or supported me.
