Beth shares with us what it was like losing her mother to dementia: how hard it was to care for her internationally; the guilt she experienced of not living near her; and the mental toll it took on her when her mother forgot who she was.
Beth believes it was the abuse her mother experienced as a child growing up in foster care that led to her dementia as it left profound mental scars that were never addressed.
For those unfamiliar with dementia: it is a term used to describe a group of symptoms affecting memory, thinking and social abilities severely enough to interfere with your daily life.
