Mum is suffering from Alzheimers. She has to be looked after by her daughter. Her condition is getting worse and her daughter is at the end of her tether. Who can she turn to for help? Will she be able to cope? If she can't rise to the challenge then her mother will have to go into a home. Although specifically about the effect of Alzheimers, the play also explores issues around caring for an older person and as such is ideal for audiences concerned with the welfare of carers and the people cared for.
"Several carers said that for them, the play reflected their own experiences - the isolation, the perpetual tiredness, the nagging sense of guilt that whatever you did, it was never quite enough." Pam Grosvenor (Portsmouth Alzheimer's Society)
