The Sweetest Moments...

While there are many challenges being a carer for someone living with Dementia, there are moments that can be endearing and so special.

My mother was rustling around in her room in the middle of the night and when I went in to investigate, she was perched on the edge of her bed, halfway through a packet of Tim Tams!

“Mum, it’s 3 o clock in the morning, what are you doing eating Tim Tams?!” I scolded.

She looked at me with a cheeky grin and (ignoring my comment on the absurdity of the hour) said
“they’re delicious, would you like one?”

And so, instead of huffing and puffing back to my room, I sat down on the edge of the bed and enjoyed a quiet and sweet (literally!) moment with Mum.

It’s the little things!
