    So great this kind of free course is organized. I'm thinking about attending it too. Dementia and Alzheimer's psychologically affect ill people, their carers, families, and society. We should do our best to help them survive and live to the fullest. My friend is suffering from dementia. I always try to spend time with her on weekends. Phrases like "You're safe here" calms her down often. I recently noticed she is annoyed by noisy environments. So I ordered her some earplugs from mcdaidpharmacy.ie (https://www.mcdaidpharmacy.ie/collections/ear-plugs). She appreciated my gift! Wearing them helps her enjoy an outing.
