SPECIAL REPORT: Dementia in Ireland - Reminiscing is good for dementia patients (VIDEO)

Rita Cadoo’s life story is told through a series of lovingly selected photographs, laid out chronologically, and accompanied by neatly written explanatory notes that guide us from childhood into adulthood and on to gradual old age.

The fabulous photo album, housed in the memory room at Mallow Primary Healthcare Centre, was compiled by her granddaughter, Sheena Cadoo, and it was more than a labour of love.
