My Lovely Mum Annie

Her daughter
23/10/2020

My Mums routine was interrupted when her day care had to close. There was a dramatic deterioration in her Alzheimers and my mum moved into a care home. My mums condition was worsened because of the restrictions on visiting. Wearing PPE and social distancing only confused her. My Mum had to go to hospital even more confusing as I was unable to visit, unless it was end of life. My Mum died unexpectedly, alone without me. I had always been there for my mum and could not do this for her.
