Howard talks about the opportunities afforded by technology

Hello from Sheffield

It’s been a foggy few days.

Friday and Saturday passed unnoticed, even forgetting to post an article in my blog Saturday.

People living with the early stage of Dementia, may not look like they have Dementia but beneath the facade they put up are increasing challenges which we can still recognise even if we cannot recognise those challenges ourselves on a daily basis.

We can still recognise at times that we are not the person we once were and that the changes happening over time are not normal.

From childhood we develop life skills which become a normal part of daily life but when those skills begin to disappear and challenges increase, those changes are not normal.

Becoming reliant on technology and those around us is not a choice we make but a necessity thrust upon us by an insidious invisible disease.

If diagnosed early enough, it may not be the beginning of the end but the end of the beginning for us.

For those that care for us, it is the beginning of a long hard road that we will increasingly not recognise.

All for now, Bye
