Home caregiver, here.
The EDUCATIONAL content in this video is amazing. The volume of information is a lot to take in! 😂 It's one of those videos you have to watch twice.

My sister was first treated for depression. she was sectioned, given antipsychotic medication and was in a mental health hospital for 8 months. l told the doctor she didn't have depression and insisted for a MRI that shows swinkage at the front of her brain. She was 45 years old. It was first noticed in 2019. She has detoriated really quick. She does not speak, bed bound and double inconveniences. l am older than her and l care for her in my home and it's painful watching her wasting away but l want to give her the best.
