From ‘Alzheimer’s Society’ – MAISIE’S STORY
“We are spending so much time together – the old nanny I knew comes out every so often!”
19-year old Maisie is a student currently living alone during lockdown with her Nan, Terry, who has Alzheimer’s disease.
Being a young carer at any time brings challenges, but coronavirus makes daily life much harder for Maise, as she starts to feel more and more lonely.
