Dear Mam, you have not been forgotten or abandoned. I think of you everyday and look forward to being able to hold your hand again and to listen to music together. I have only been able to see my lovely Mum in her care home twice since March and then only through a window slightly ajar. We are missing precious time together as each day I am losing a little bit more of her. Dementia is cruel but it’s even worse when I’m not ‘allowed’ to see my own mother. Love you lots Mam xxx
