Through togetherness we find a way to stay strong through the storms

Hello, this is the 1st dementia diary for YODA. I’m Julie Hayden. Welcome to YODA’s 1st diary as a member of DEEP.
We are located in Halifax, West Yorkshire, but maintain an online presence via Facebook in order to keep up with others across the world on this shared journey.
Although we have common experiences, each member faces individual challenges at different times. We support each other through these, albeit dips in our physical health, cognitive decline or the effects of being a long term carer of our loved ones.
Through togetherness, we find a way to stay strong through the storms, regain our equilibrium and fight on for our rights, services and support, which should be ours without resorting to a fight.
We look forward to sharing more of our journey with you.
Thank you.
