Norman - your video is excellent and gives me insight into what my husband might need to cope with his dementia diagnosis. Like many others who have commented, I am doing the University of Tasmania's Understanding Dementia course. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Thank you for keeping going and sharing your knowledge and your journey with us.

Hi ❤hun love the way laugh and talk 😊

I literally purchased a CD player yesterday for my father who is 87, has dementia and is in a care home. He loves Tom Jones and Frank Sinatra and I’m taking the CD player into the home today. Your wise are so wise.

Thank you for sharing

Very informative

Thanks Norman for your honesty and frankness. Glad Uni of Tasmania referred us to you. Glad to hear that you are still making the most of your life 🙂

Thanks for sharing your heartfelt experience and excellent information on planning and planning ahead.

Complete sense, as usual Norm. The professionals need to listen to the people who are living with it 24/7.

Thank you for sharing your heartfelt story, I am aloo doing the Dementia course from Tasmania Uni. I am sure your video clip is/will be an inspiration to anyone with YOD.

Brilliant message Norman , Respect & thanks 👏💪💪👏

Thanks for your info it helps a lot.

I'm also here from the UTAS MOOC course, I have listened to your video as one of the resources for learning about dementia- Thank you for sharing

Norm: you are a wonderful man. That was so helpful. My David has gone now but I think I understand him a bit better now, in retrospect. Stay as well as possible. Your presentation skills are first rate. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

Right again, Norm. We didn’t even get a leaflet! I did my own research but I dread to think what happens to people who don’t have any family to find out things and help them. To be fair, in Scotland we have access to a support worker from Alzheimer’s Scotland for one year after diagnosis, but I don’t think people in England get anything. My mum wouldn’t engage with the support worker, but at least they were willing to try.

A brilliant video, so very helpful. I am using this as part of my assignment and am also going to signpost my Dad, who was diagnosed himself 3 years ago. Thank you Norman.

I love your spirit Sir! You're an inspiration and thank you very much for sharing your experience with us. I am currently learning about dementia and I am very interested in this topic. I am glad my class brought us to your video. I hope you're doing well, keep fighting! Stay strong! 🙏🙏

Hello Norman from Devon: Thank you for sharing your experience since being diagnosed with Dementia. I am presently taking UNDERSTANDING DEMENTIA online as a MOOC ( Massive Open Online Course ) from the University of Tasmania in Australia. It is August, 2021 and most of these comments were posted 5 or 6 years ago. I hope you are still with us.

Thanks so much Norman. I am doing an on-line dementia course from the Uni of Tasmania. I'm very glad that you were diagnosed early so could get your affairs in order, inform family and special others so that you have their understanding and support and now have an opportunity to make the most of your life prepared with knowledge and supportive resources. All the very best!

Absolutely amazing whatyou have developed.

I truly admire you, Norman, for your comprehensively advanced thinking. And yes, the message you just mentioned, is very powerful! "I am LIVING with dementia" as opposed to "I am dying with dementia." It is the first time I have heard it, so far, since I have been working as a Recreation Assistant.

How I wished my siblings could be diagnosed early in their disease and had been courageous like you, Mr. McNamara.

You are such an inspiration Norman, thank you so much for sharing.

God bless you Norman. You are a fighter and champ. A real inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story.

Well done ❤

What an amazing story that you have shared with us - thank you so much. You are a very brave man and I wish you so much joy in your daily life.

Thank you for the talk.

Dear Norman, you are a brave soul, thank you for putting yourself out-there for us all to learn from. You give us all, a good, valid, reason for knowing, versus not knowing. It's been a few years since this video, so I hope you are still enjoying your life and thank you! from ... Adelaide, South Australia

Apologies, but I can not work out the sound of the Email address with your accent? Is it " O" or an " R" or Nooms ?

Thank you so much Dear Norman!

You are still alive, hooray, that's wonderful and best of luck you brave man!

Best of luck Mr. Norman McNamara if you are still alive.

Chemtrails causes Alzheimer's and dementia (which I've got both myself) and other illnesses, I suggest you look up chemtrails and the effects on the brain. On RUclips

Very nice garden.

Keep uploading norm!

I appreciate you sharing your experience. I cared for my father-in law but he is in nursing home now. Visited him again today. He says hello and did not say anything at all..I feel so sorry for him. We need more education on dementia so many people can be aware of what to do, and how to cope with it in caring for a family. Appreciate your being brave in sharing with us.

Thanks Norman for your very informative and helpful video. God bless you for your positive attitude. This was very helpful to me as I support people with disabilities some of whom have the beginning signs of dementia. I can see how an early diagnosis is so important. I wish you and your family all the best!

You're a brave man! Thank you for sharing with us all. xxx

You are so right on...thank God for people like you that take the time to help and video your life.

You are an amazing man. Thank you for your videos..💕

I'm so happy for you.. God bless you

People that are not familiar with Lewy Body Dementia have no idea. Even my family thinks my husband is just fine when they see him for an hour or so. Unless someone is with the person all day and night, they don't really get it. LBD isn't always an "all day" thing. I've told my husband he is good at keeping his secret 😉.. I love him and just want him to have as full a life as he can have. So we just go about everyday like any other day, I just am with him always if he needs me. Thank you for your videos, they do help.

Everything you are saying is spot on..😢

My husband was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia in May 2018. I have been watching different videos and I thank each and every person that was brave enough to make these videos for people that are going through this. They have really helped people. My husband has hallucinations every night all night, and then early in the morning. God bless you. I have just started videoing him to keep a record
