Welcome back! This month we're talking about a great day out we had last week to Flat Holm island in the Bristol Channel. As you know if you've watched our videos, we try to show that having a dementia diagnosis doesn't have to stop you doing fun stuff. We're not very skilled film-makers - still just learning - but we hope this gives you a feel for our day.
We went from Cardiff with Bay Island Voyages, who were great. You can find their website at: www.bayislandv...
Let us know whether you've managed to get out and do something fun lately. We're looking forward to reading you comments :)
ABOUT US
We're Mark and Heather and we talk about our daily adventures living with Mark's diagnosis of Young Onset Alzheimer's Disease. We're aiming to share information we've found useful, things we're finding challenging and any tips and tricks we come across along the way. Come back at the beginning of every month for a new video!

Mark came up with the title "The Everyday Adventures of Dementia Man". For us, it's a way of seeing humour in a challenging situation. If we couldn't laugh at the absurdities that dementia brings, we'd never make it through. We definitely don't mean to belittle anyone's experience and we're not ignoring the big challenges that dementia brings. Sometimes it can be very sad and hard. But when we can, we're determined to get on with enjoying life and learning new ways to cope and thrive.
