I should pop in Monty Python's Flying Circus tonight. Maybe I'll watch the whole box set through over the next however-long. R.I.P.

I knew he had dementia so not a surprise but still really sad and certainly not a way you want to go.Soloman Tump wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2020 1:43 pmMy thoughts exactly![]()

Re: R.I.P.
my great aunt has the same form of dementia that he did, it is really sad watching someone regress. She is like a meek lamb now, doesn't recognise anyone ever her full time carer (husband). Barely leaves the house, medication has stopped her being aggressive at least.

Re: R.I.P.
sorry to hear that. my grandfather had dementia, and he was unable to hold a conversation, for sure. but his personality remained more or less in tact. peaceful, solitary... it was more like "oh it was funny today he said" rather than "he tried to beat up the care worker again".Soloman Tump wrote: ↑Thu Jan 23, 2020 1:03 ammy great aunt has the same form of dementia that he did, it is really sad watching someone regress.
