No One Warns You About This Part of Dementia

No One Warns You About This Part of Dementia

Dementia is brutal. In this episode I talk openly about what it’s like watching a loved one slowly disappear through Dementia.


This is a personal story about my grandma, her decline over the last few years, and the emotional impact it has had on me and my family.


I cover:


  • Dementia symptoms and behavioural changes in real life

  • Memory loss, confusion, and personality shift

  • Care home decisions and safety concerns

  • Carer guilt and emotional burnout

  • Ambiguous loss and grief while someone is still alive

  • Family impact of dementia care in the UK



If you’re dealing with dementia in a family member, caring for someone with dementia, or trying to understand what dementia does to personality and memory, this episode breaks it down from lived experience rather than theory.


Raw, honest discussion about dementia, family, grief, and mental health
