About the Author

Beryl Robson is a retired nurse specialist. Married with two adult daughters she was born and has spent all her working life in Lancashire. Specialising in the care of older people for over twenty seven years she has worked in hospital, owned and managed nursing homes and prior to retirement worked in community nursing. Working in these varying settings provided a vast insight into where the individual’s needs could be met most appropriately in order to promote quality of life. This heart-rending story portrays how respect, dignity and choice are not always afforded to older people in our society. Dennis is now 86 years of age and it has been my privilege to assist him in fulfilling his greatest wish to have his story published.
