Debbie revealed dementia diagnosis to family in Coronation Street
This evening in Coronation Street, the episode opened up with Debbie freezing at Roy’s Rolls and forgetting to pay Bernie. Bernie then helped her sort out what she owed as Debbie told her to keep the change.
Later on, Debbie was busy arranging an event when she spaced out and collapsed. With Kevin, Abi and Ronnie all advising Debbie to go to the hospital, she then told them that she didn’t need to as she already knew what was wrong with her.
Kevin was hurt that Carl knew about Debbie’s dementia diagnosis and didn’t tell him about it, with Debbie telling him that he already had a lot going on and she didn’t want to worry him.
Abi then finally took a reluctant Debbie to the hospital where she was told that she’d suffered another TIA. She was now at risk of having a full stroke.
The doctor then told Debbie to wait in the waiting room while she referred her to a specialist clinic, telling her that she mustn’t drive for four weeks.
But, she then caused her family to panic when they realised that she’d disappeared and taken off with the car.
