What does it mean to stay with someone — rather than explain them, fix them, or predict their future?

I’ve been thinking about this through theatre and dementia care, and wrote about it for The Stage. The piece looks at how performance can shape public understanding of dementia — and where responsibility really lies.

This question continues to shape my wider work across care, performance, and medical humanities.

If you work in care, theatre, or education, I’d genuinely love to know what resonates.

This work looks at how meaning fragments, clusters, and disappears inside digital systems.
