I really need a hug

[joanne30]

My mum has been diagnosed with early stage vascular dementia. This was on Friday. I am devastated. I thought she might have it, but it was a shock when she got the diagnosis.I am finding it hard to write this post because I am so upset. I live with my parents, I don't have any friends who live close to me, I just wish their was someone I could talk to.

Joanne. Sending hugs your way.

You can talk to me if you want. My Mum had Frontotemporal Dementia.

Is there an Alzheimer's Society near you or Dementia UK?

Thank you so much for all your kind words. I'm scared because I don't know what the future will hold or how fast the dementia will progress.

Sorry you have had such upsetting news. Can you maybe see the doctor on your own for more information? Or check out for support groups in your area. Remember there's a chat room on the site, and usually someone about if you want a chat. It can be a good distraction too :) :bighug1:
