Thanks. You are very right. I find it hard to see her struggle (early stage Alzheimer's). But I think we all looked after her and she had a ball

My dad's going through this now. He's on what may well be his last big trip - touring around Australia with a campervan with his partner. Last I spoke to him he asked me the same questions three times over in a ten minute conversation. It's hard.

Sorry to hear that. My mate's parents did that trip when the mum got diagnosed. His dad used to say at least he could go back to old favourite spots that she would normally be bored with because they were all new!
