The reality of dementia in lockdown

My mother and stepdad

Lockdown for my mother and step father has been the worst time of their lives. They have declined both physically and mentally to a degree that it will be impossible to fix. My mum had a fall and broke her hip so needed an emergency operation . The op was successful but not one of her family was allowed to visit so from being a physically fit person living with dementia she came out of hospital near to death. Excluding personal contact absolutely really accelerated their dementia.
