When texting was still pretty new, I had this text exchange with a friend about my missing cloth tote branded with a local grocery chain logo: Me: I think I left my Dominick’s bag at your house last night.

Dementia is a debilitating and distressing condition for both the patient and their carers. Yet when viewed from a spiritual perspective, for some it may be a blessing in disguise. My grandmother had dementia. I didn’t know her very well because she lived quite far away, but as a child I remember hearing on many occasions that she had disappeared and then there was a tense waiting period until the news arrived that she had been found wandering around her neighbourhood and had been brought home. Medical science still does not know what causes dementia or how to prevent it, only that it has now reached epidemic proportions. Globally, over 50 million people suffer from it, and these numbers are...
