Thank you Hair Twiddler, I do appreciate your reply.

Good luck Couplano.

Good night everyone x

Hello Couplano,

Just a quick response. I'm sorry to hear about your Mother/Daughter relationship. I could have written your story, and you could certainly write mine. There are many of us on...

My Mother's sister really gets to me (note I decline to describe her as my Aunt). My Mother is still not diagnosed, but symptoms and behaviour worsening. Mother's Sister is an evil entity. EG,...

Hi Isabella,

Sorry I've been absent for so long. Much going on, mostly on my plate. But as you and I have said before.... our Mother's are clones. I hate reading your posts, because I have...

Oh deary me, Pammy. I didn't mean to make you cry. I so want to support you and share experiences. I am sorry, Dear.

I'm sending you a Private Message, I think it is appropriate.

Meantime,...

Hi Pammy,

You could so easily be describing my own Mother. And unfortunately I have had to live with her for sometime.

Dementia is a illness that knows no boundaries, there are no ceilings,...

Dee, you have over a week to formulate a contingency plan:) Do speak to SS and gain their support, perhaps she needs an up to date assessment? Quite often I am told that tough love is the best love,...

Hello North Daughter,

I am with Izzy on this one. If you feel that seeing your Mother in this state is making you ill, then ease back on the visits. Only visit on the days when you feel strong...

PS
In the care home I visited last month, one of the seniors did confide that when a resident gets particularly disruptive, then he will administer a mild sedative in a warm drink which always calms...

Thanks Izzy - that is indeed food (or medication) for thought. My Mother has always been spiteful and resentful to me, so the relationship has always been fractious to say the least. And now, when...

Good girl Dee!

I do know exactly how you feel - it's daunting tackling these difficult Mothers. I have been brought up to respect my elders too, but that is so hard to maintain when the elder is...

That is very interesting Izzy. Did your Mother's GP give it to you to administer to her when you felt it was necessary? And how did you get your Mother to agree to swallow it?? I certainly feel I...

Dee,

You clearly have massive concerns for your son, I would too. This is another reason to get her GP and SS involved. Your son is vulnerable to the impact of this behaviour. So perhaps it is...

Hi deedee1

Really sorry to hear of your upsetting situation - very familiar territory for me - I live with my Mother too and she will suddenly fly at me for no other reason, except that I suspect...

Hello,

At Christmas time, my friend applied for Deputyship recently for his Mum who has Alzheimers and is in a CH. Someone had hacked into her bank account at a cash point so everything was...

Hi Celia,

You might find an awareness of the Court of Protection/Deputy Status
useful.
...

Hi Brian,

That is almost an admission of neglect on behalf of the GP. I am quite envious, as I have been campaigning my mother's gp for 5 years now but still he prefers to stand on the...

[QUOTE=beech mount;618230]Tooshi, i think you are going about this the wrong way, perhaps if you bought her a pet, maybe a cat? Lion, Tiger, Puma etc. and for the sister a whip?

Hi again Brian,

The number of times I have made a similar remark to my friends such as yours above is countless. My Mother was so disengaged from me as a child, she was perfunctory as a Mother. ...

When OH was getting the car out of the garage earlier, I told Mother we wouldn't be back until tomorrow and that I didn't know what time that would be, so not to make lunch for us. She snarled back...

Hi Chris,

Yes, I will certainly write to the Oncologist about the pantomime in the Hospital Reception on 16th, and give a brief outline of how Mother hid the letter requesting her to attend...

Dear Brian,

I really empathise with you - for I am in the same position. My Mother is very adept at fooling medical people (well, at least she tells lies and says she isn't in pain etc) but in...

Hi Chris53,

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and reply. Battery is failing. I will respond tomorrow. big hug in return. night night. x

Well John... I'm going back to St Helens in August. Does that count as 'a holiday'? I do love your dark humour! :D x
