Description

At 49, Kate Swaffer's diagnosis with younger onset dementia was a life-changing event. In this candid and thought-provoking book, she shares her personal experience of living with the condition, tackling difficult issues such as stigma, inadequate care, and the impact on family life.

Kate's story is one of resilience and self-discovery, as she navigates the challenges of memory loss, independence, employment, and relationships. She also reflects on the ways in which her writing and advocacy work have helped her find a new sense of purpose and identity.

This book offers a unique and powerful perspective on dementia, challenging misconceptions and offering practical suggestions for supporting people with the diagnosis. A valuable resource for those affected by dementia, as well as professionals and carers.
