Emma Haslegrave Quotes
I Believe That When A Loved One Has Dementia, You Experience Many Layers Of Grief.
The First Wave Of Grief Comes With The Diagnosis. The Realisation That The Person Who Has Supported You All Your Life, Will No Longer Be Able To Do So, No Matter How Hard They Try.
Grief The First Time They Struggle To Remember Your Name Or Your Relationship To Each Other.
Grief When You Have To Accept That You Can No Longer Keep Them At Home.
Grief As They Lose The Ability To Communicate, As Another Piece Of The Jigsaw Is Lost.
Grief Every Time They Are Afraid, Agitated Or Confused. So Much Grief You Don't Think You Can Cope With Anymore.
And Then The Overwhelming Tidal Wave Of Grief When They Pass, When You Would Give Anything To Go Back To The First Wave Of Grief.
