How does a group of late middle aged children cope with the realization that their mother has dementia? This poignant story, told in the format of a narrative play, explores the impact on their mother and themselves as the siblings become aware that their beloved mother is suffering from the debilitating illness. Based on the real life experience of the writer and his Mum, much of the dialogue is taken from actual conversations. This will amuse, sadden and uplift the reader in equal measure. This is not only a compelling look at dementia but also questions the efficiency of some of the basic care services that cater for the most vulnerable in society. This book also contains a duologue version involving just the son and his mother.
