My Mum

27/10/2020

In March we made the dreadful decision to put mum into a specialist demential home. Little did we know that a week after she would go into the home, lockdown would be enforced. After my Dad died last year who was Mums carer, I moved in to look after her. I went from seeing her 24/7 to not seeing her at all for 18wks. The day I did see her through glass I couldn't believe the difference in her. She could'nt speak and had absolutely no idea who I was. Lockdown again and once again I cant visit
