Dementia is experienced in different forms, in different ways and is coped with differently by different people, but with nearly 10 million new cases every year, it is something many people face. It's tough on those with the disease, but it is also incredibly hard for the loved ones around them. Karen Martin's story about her friend Kathleen, however, is overwhelmingly one of love and persistence. Despite their nearly half-century age difference, their commonality drew them to each other, and their genuine friendship uplifted them both. Charting the story from pre-diagnosis to Kathleen's eventual passing, this moving tale highlights the difficulties and joys of facing dementia, through the lens of friendship.
