FAQs on Dementia

Tom Russ, Michael Huddleston

No question too embarrassing, naive, complicated or simple – everything that’s ever been asked about dementia, answered.

Fe wnaethoch chi adael y feddygfa cyn i chi allu gofyn y pethau roeddech chi wir eisiau eu holi. Rydych chi wedi gwglo eich cwestiwn am ddementia ac wedi cael 75 o atebion, pob un yn gwrth-ddweud ei gilydd. Rydych wedi holi eich ffrind gorau – ond edrychodd arnoch chi’n rhyfedd.

Mae gennych gymaint o gwestiynau, ond nid oes syniad gennych ble i ddechrau dod o hyd i’r atebion. Dyma nhw. Yn y llyfr hwn fe welwch yr atebion penodol, arbenigol i’ch holl gwestiynau ar ddementia. Nid oes unrhyw gwestiwn yn rhy syml, yn rhy ddigywilydd neu’n rhy anarferol i’w cynnwys, ac mae miloedd o bobl wedi gofyn yr un rhai â chi.
