After 5 years of graft & commitment I’m so relieved & proud to have successfully defended my thesis at my viva (examination) & been awarded my PhD. Thinking of all the amazing people who have walked the way with me. Here’s to more creative possibilities with people with dementia.

My mum's funeral today. Felt right to talk in eulogy about her core gift - to use (rude) humour to help people relax and forge more meaningful relationships. Meeting the wonderful friends she made in the last 6 yrs of her life proved the point. Go well, mum. Thank you. ❤❤❤
