F.A.O Sarahf86. Hi have just read your reply to pauline and would really appreciate some information from you.
My mum is 79 and was diagnosed vascular dementia in August 2007. I am her carer but apart from some information from the internet about vascular dementia I dont know much about it. The hospital diagnosed then discharged with no info or what to look for or to expect. I have recently moved to west sussex from london and am finding the help and support really good but its the changes that are occuring in my mum that I don't know if it is the illness progressing or what. I am not sure what stage she is at some days she seems ok others she seems to be in a world of her own and communication is hard.
There is lots I need to know but don't quite know where to start.
Hope you don't mind me asking.
sarah
