Do you still use cheques as payment?Mainly use cheques for donating to Charities, I do not like to give out my bank details. I have a number of preferred charities but cannot afford to give to them all on a regular basis so I donate in turn. If cheques are withdrawn then these charities will definitely miss out.ViewDate:

Has your life been touched by Alzheimer's in any way?My mother has been in a dementia unit for just over a year and still wants to go home; when you ask her where home is, it is where she grew up as a girl. It is heartbreaking when that this once very independent and self reliant woman can't even remember her parents and siblings have all died (she was the youngest and is now 89)she has no short term memory and was a danger to herself and others and this is what you have to remind yourself about- she is safe, well fed, warm and looked after by caring staff who know how to handle the challenges of dementia. Guilt is always there as is heartbreak but you have done what's best for both your mum and you and your family.
