Mum has her first appointment outside the house since lockdown - a visit to the GP

Breakfast on BBC Radio Leeds

Available for over a year

Andrew is back with Mum after a fortnight's holiday. After a difficult year he'd been half expecting a call to say there were problems and he needed to get home, but all - thankfully - was well. Mum has a routine appointment at the GP: her first appointment outside the house since the start of lockdown. Even though she's forgotten how to do lots of things (eg chewing food), she remembers how to get in and out of the car and the trip goes well. Mum and Me: The Dementia Diary was originally broadcast on BBC Radio Leeds.
