From people who came through it

  • “A note for the next person. I was where you are in 2022. Sundowning around five. That was my life. These days I mostly feel like me. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. One day at a time.”

  • “Dear friend, If you're just starting out with dementia care, I want to say this: feeling angry and sad is normal. It doesn't make you a bad person. The sundowning hours are the toughest, but each evening ends. When help comes, take it, even if it's just a small thing. And look after yourself, because you can't pour from an empty cup. I'm still learning that. You've got company in this. Hazez”

  • “This time last year I was exactly where you are. Back then it was power of attorney paperwork. These days I mostly feel like me. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. From someone who gets it.”

  • “Hi, you. In 2022 I was exactly where you are. The care home waiting list. That was my life. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. The bad days get further apart.”
