Marianne Cranwell - On feeling qualitative research, being naïve, and a wee bit of crying

Marianne Cranwell narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In her first blog for Dementia Researcher, Marianne shares the tale of her unexpected emotional journey. During her PhD project with carers of people living with dementia, she learned how it felt to do qualitative research with people who are living through some of their most difficult moments - she explores how this made her feel, the impact on her research and what she has learned along the way.

Marianne Cranwell is a PhD Candidate in the School of Education and Social Work & School of Health Sciences at the University of Dundee. When not wrangling her two children, Marianne is undertaking qualitative longitudinal research that explores the experiences of co-habiting informal carers of people living with dementia when homecare begins. This research is inspired by her time working in social care, and the families she met during this time where the emphasis was put on the service and the person living with dementia and not on their loved ones.
