Wrapping-up his colours to join me on the mat for his first evening home yoga with me to do what feels good with the little help of @adrienelouise ‘s videos introduced to me by my bestie @ilianalanuza @ilianalanuzawellness ❣️. David loved the yoga with Adrienne. He sat down and started breathing, getting into the rhythm and following the instructions with composure like a pro. I could not believe it! 🤩He did not even try to crack a joke or be silly once! So lovely to see him so relaxed and focused. He told me that it took him back to moments he enjoyed very much in his youth when he followed a training given by monks when he was himself training to be a priest. #thanks4remembering #dementiacare #davidjackwickert (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnwjvw6H8_A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1g79c23z2nykc

Season’s Greeting from the Yurt café!
PS: Rachel up-cycled one of my jumpers and let me choose the pattern. I am wearing our creation in this animation.

SUNDAY 17th DECEMBER
Apologies for gaps and for the days not reported. As you may have read above I am seriously ill with Alzheimer's, The main problems are (1) I get tired very easily, (2) my short term memory is rubbish but my long term memory does still exist to a significant extent especially if someone reminds me of something to see if I remember details which I often do! So now I have to be careful to make notes of things that I must do (hence this entry amongst other things has come about!) and I looked around for my notes before I started to write this paragraph and I found what I needed to provide what I believe to be reliable background to what I am writing. I am so lucky to be able to rely on Rachel, my wife, to fill in the blanks. She did a collage of 2017′s highlights.

SUNDAY 10 DECEMBER 2017
Today is the 1st day of snow! I put on my warmest jacket and shoes for the occasion. Rachel remembers that we bought them 10 years ago to walk on the Great Wall of China! Today e made our way to the Yurt and wondered at first whether the event had been cancelled as we could not see any activities outside. But we met someone who told us that inside the containers the artists were waiting for us with mince-pies. Then we saw Yasmin’s friendly face through her window and went in to say hello, have a chat and buy some of her creations (coaster cat and brooch already on my desk). You can see her creations on her website yasminfalahat.com. We went on to meet with two other artists joymiessi.com and janehdee.com . Below is a selfie of us with Jane Dee and one of her marvellous works in the background.
