    bro your videos are so well explained keep up the good work!😃😄
  • Thankyou for including the clock drawings. When I suspected that my mother-inlaw had alzheimer's, we were so sure we caught it early. Then we got the result of her evaluation, the most shocking thing to me was the clock. It was the first big shock, and first understanding of where she actually was.

    Does anyone know if any dementia patients have maybe done a video diary on youtube? I really want to see what this disease is like in the daily life
