Dementia - A Big Hello from London!!!!

Postby Pat1066 » Fri Sep 07, 2007 5:21 pm

:) Hi, my name is Pat and I'm quite new to this forum. Even though I am not a carer myself, my Mum is a carer for my Father, who has Alzheimer's disease. He was diagnosed 2 years ago, he is now 77 years old. This has had a devastating affect on the whole family. I wanted to help raise the awareness to campaign for Dementia Drugs and have even posted a message on this subject.

I have found this forum very informative and helpful. Glad that I've joined.

Hi Pat

We've already met on Tony's forum - lovely to see you on here as well. I'll let you know when I get the reply from our PCT via Mr Healey.

Welcome Pat - but I'd guess that you help your mum with the caring from time to time, or with other things - so that would make you a carer too.
