Brother and sister plus father with dementia. Doesn’t sound a laugh a
minute. This is a subject that is very close to the hearts of many of
the 50-plus. At one level having to deal with the practicalities of
ageing and difficult parents at another, staring at one’s own future?
The Savages (the
surname not their predisposition) is a new film on release (or just
about to be released) in the US. Anybody seen the film –comments?
In
a minor way the UK’s longest running radio soap opera, The Archers, has
been covering a similar subject. All a bit “too close to the bone”.
