Sam is an 80-year old gentleman in the late stages of Dementia. He was living by himself and was starting to leave his home in a vulnerable state. During the winter months, Sam was found in the middle of the night by the police while he was walking his dog – he was in his pyjamas, and it was -6 degrees outside.
His children were understandably worried and fearful, but they were determined to let their dad have one more Christmas at home before considering the switch to a care home – a wish that was shared by Sam.
