Last week’s incredible episode with Teun Toebes showed just how wrong we (or at least Marcus) had been about dementia.
After years of calling dementia the worst way to die, right at the end of the episode Teun challenged that perspective.
This young man who spent 3.5 years living in a nursing home and with people with dementia, not only taught us the power of treating older people like human beings (which sounds so obvious), but also just how far from “Human Forever” we really have strayed.
