Day 1 - bike ride after parents evening!Well done @Purple rain 50 Have a lovely time with your son, making some good memories.
Enjoy your G&T, mum is being looked after xTo be honest it’s been a seriously traumatic day - mum has rung 35 times (I’ve answered about 5) & numerous texts begging me to let her go home.
I rang Alzheimer’s Soc. helpline & had a cry & told them I think her anxiety levels run deeper than dementia. I think she needs psychiatric help!
They were great & gave me some useful numbers / talked about Continuing Health Care. Also left a message for mum’s consultant to call me & rang Adult Social Care. All the calls I can’t make with mum listening!
Having a G&T now 🥴
Yes it is defeating the object ever so slightly 🤯🤦🏻♀️!Please don't answer your phone.
Mum is being looked after and needs to transfer her anxiety to the care home staff.
You won't get the rest you need if you keep speaking to her.
Have a lovely lunch with your Dad and make the most of the half term break with your son.Thanks all! Yesterday was amazing - no phone calls at all & nothing today so far!
Mums brother & sister came up to visit today & some old neighbours also visited her in the afternoon. All reported back that she was fine (although she did try to get her brother to break her out)
Taking dad (they’ve been separated 30+ years) out for a birthday lunch today (only a month late 🤦🏻♀️) & hopefully a walk on the beach after as sun is shining today 🌞
