Bill & Jo Wilson – The Long Goodbye

Описание: At Alzheimer’s Society, we’ll be there for you again, and again, and again.

Bill Wilson shares his intimate story of losing his much beloved wife of 42 years, Jo Wilson, to dementia in this heart-breaking film.

The idea or ‘anticipatory’ grief, often known as ‘The Long Goodbye’, is so often associated with dementia. Bill describes in his own words how this idea truly reflects the heartbreaking way in which dementia can bring grief again and again to those affected.
