Tommy Dunne's Journey: Early Onset Alzheimer's and Community Support

You've got to pick yourself up and get up there and get out there, and when you do, you'll find you've got a lot of living to do, because you don't go from getting diagnosed into the latter stages of dementia.
Imagine being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's at just 58. That's the reality for Tommy Dunne, a passionate dementia campaigner and Pete Hill's guest in this eye-opening episode of 'The D-Word' on UK Health Radio Podcast. Pete dives into Tommy's personal story, exploring the emotional and practical challenges he faces daily. They talk about the significance of community support and the role organizations like Everton Football Club play in aiding dementia patients and their families.
Pete also opens up about his own experiences with dementia, sharing candid reflections that are both moving and relatable. Whether you're directly affected by dementia or simply want to understand it better, this episode offers valuable insights and a strong message of hope. Tune in for an engaging conversation that emphasizes the power of family, community, and living life to the fullest despite the diagnosis.
