Episode description

I have talked a few times on the podcast about denial. Denial in the person living with dementia, denial by family and friends, or even denial by healthcare professionals. But what if what you’re seeing in your loved one living with cognitive impairment isn’t denial, what if it’s anosognosia? What even is anosognosia?
