Thank you to Pam, Geoff and Deborah for their time, patience and contributions this week: we have some really great footage and interviews to make five very good case-studies of how SPECAL has helped to change the course of peoples’ lives. As they all said, SPECAL has had a profound effect on their relationships with those they love who have dementia by teaching them how to understand the disease, how to ‘get along side’ the person with dementia and how to keep the communication channels open.
We still have some ‘pick up’ shots to do for the narrative of the film but we would like to take this opportunity to also thank the crews for their work and care – they have all helped make the filming of this difficult subject as painless as possible and as ever have displayed their talent and good humour throughout, so Derek, Kim, Alex and Marc – thank you. You are stars! Kate x
Isn’t it one of life’s beautiful surprises when love and kindness springs out in a group of people engaged in ‘doing a good fing!’
Thanks again Kate.
