When their mother got diagnosed with dementia, host and actress Munah Bagharib and her brother Ziyad felt like they had to overhaul their entire lives - little did they know that this would only make things worse. Four years on, they’ve adapted and are all about taking things as they come and making sure their mum is happy.
The pair open up about how they got to where they are now, and the bouts of caregiver’s guilt they still struggle with.
Dementia is an invisible condition. You never know when it will happen until it does. Together, we can do our part to support them and create a dementia-friendly Singapore.
