Dementia Care Quotes By Norman Doidge

The breakthrough study was done by Dr. Peter Elwood and a team from the Cochrane Institute of Primary Care and Public Health, Cardiff University, United Kingdom, and released in December 2013.

Dementia Care Quotes By Darrell Drake

She could have rambled with all the fervor of a woman who had loved one entity for longer than most races live, and with the inviolable, unquestioned certainty found in dementia.

But that singular event was freshly disturbed; its pores still drifted on the faint zephyr of remembrance. — Darrell Drake
