Mum meets Coco the dog and teenage seagulls on a trip to the park

Andrew Edwards

Available for over a year

Mum's sleeping for much of the time now, but - after lunch - Andrew gets the wheelchair out to push her down to the park. Next door neighbour Anne joins them as they meet teenage seagulls and a dog called Coco, whose owner spots that Mum might like to give him a stroke! Andrew enjoys the simple pleasures of a walk in the spring sunshine, but finds himself getting unexpectedly emotional when he's putting towels in the airing cupboard. Mum and Me: The Dementia Diary was originally broadcast on BBC Radio Leeds.
