On the roof.jpg

This is a re-scrap of a previous layout; I updated it for a book I gave to my Mum hoping to interest her in some details about her past. I've discovered that all Dementia journeys are not the same and my hope that her memory would retain some information about her young days while forgetting recent events has not proved to be the case. I'm still feeling my way with this experience and definitely learning as I go...

It's a very beautiful page. Happy there are photos to make of her and her story. I hope the page you made helps her remember some of those times.

Incredible page, I love the triple photo and the building background. My heart goes out to you, this must be hard...

Love the extraction, i hope it helps her remember ! And I think it is especially difficult for you to accept her situation, big hugs

I totally understand ... Some days the memories just aren't there. You have inspired me to write about a connection my sister made with me. Thank you. Beautiful page and mum!

Thank you! I don't have lots of photographs of her when she was young but trying hard to utilise the ones I do have - sadly there don't seem to be any memories resurfacing but I'll keep trying! x

Really beautiful! (I have also read that playing music helps from that era).

I have donated all her CDs to the Care Home and they do have musical afternoons. We have played music from her younger days but the music doesn't seem to resonate with her...it's all trial and error so we'll keep trying! x

Thank you! Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have worked but I'm not giving up just yet - maybe some memories will come back to her!
