Mum seems to be forgetting how to eat

Available for over a year

Andrew has to make another unscheduled visit to Mum after a carer finds her sitting awkwardly and unable to move. Paramedics are called, but it turns out to be another sad incident related to her vascular dementia. She’s been struggling recently with eating - pouching food in her cheek like a hamster and forgetting to swallow. Mum and Me: The Dementia Diary was originally broadcast on BBC Radio Leeds.
