Wonderful movie with great insights into the affects of dementia on others.
This was the most thought provoking film, giving me a better understanding of how the children must cope. It will help me as I reach out to caregivers with my photos. Thank you.
Thanks for writing Helen. I totally agree. WE all need to understand the impact the disease has on everyone.
