The Wider Image: Losing my grandfather to dementia during the pandemic
Two-year-old Bianca Toniolo holds hands with her great-grandfather, Gino Verani, 87, in a rare moment of tenderness, as they watch the news on television during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, at home in San Fiorano, Italy, March 4, 2020. Toniolo said that although both Verani and Bianca loved each other very much, Verani struggled to respect the rules on social distancing which sometimes irritated Bianca, but, it was also just as difficult to make her understand her great-grandfather's difficulties.
