Über diesen Titel

 In the first episode of One Life | One Story, Callum shares the story of growing up alongside his Nan Joyce as she slowly disappeared into dementia. What begins as a childhood filled with long walks, seaside trips, Christmas traditions, and family gatherings gradually turns into confusion, fear, and grief as dementia takes hold. Callum speaks honestly about watching someone he loved change piece by piece, the emotional toll it took on him as a teenager, and how that experience shaped his adult life in ways he did not understand at the time.

This episode is about love, loss, and the quiet damage that dementia leaves behind, not only on those who suffer from it, but on everyone who loves them.
