Wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin has shared his heartbreak as his grandfather battles dementia.

Robert Irwin has revealed what life is like for his grandfather living with dementia.

‘I think there’s no one living who hasn’t encountered someone or has a loved one who has experienced this. My grandfather on my mum’s side had a form of dementia and a lot of family friends have had that as well,’ he said. ‘It’s heartbreaking but I guess it just reminds you you’ve got to spend every second with the people you love, and really surround yourself with love and light’ he added.

Dementia currently doesn’t have a ‘cure’, but Robert is optimistic that proposed new treatment could help those suffering.
