Relatives of those with Alzheimer's

23/10/2020

I have a friend in her 80s who has a brother with Alzheimer's. He is in care. I often take her to the care home where she can visit for half an hour in the garden. This week we didn't visit. He was sectioned for violent behaviour. Turned out he had a UDI, liver and kidney infection. That's care in 2020.
