I completely agree with your comment. My mother passed away last month, with complications brought on by her Parkinson’s and dementia. I flew in to be with her for 2 x 4 week periods last year to give my father and sister some respite. They live in France and I am in Australia. I watched your play and comments today with a great deal of regret and sadness that I did not know how to interact with my mother when I was living with her and my father. I got angry and frustrated when I should not have, and more likely than not exacerbated her own anxiety. I am so very sorry that I behaved this way, and thoroughly agree that families who have a diagnosis of dementia in their midst should have to watch this programme. It was so incredibly helpful, and so very moving.
