Hi. New member here.
My mother has just been diagnosed with dementia- Alzheimer's disease. She is in her eighties and her short term memory for everyday events, which has been poor for a long while has deteriorated rapidly.
While she didn't seem phased by the news, broken to her very gently by an empathetic consultant, I don't think she has grasped the implications.
We are a supportive family but she is adamant that she is fine, although she has problems remembering to eat and coping with everyday things like remembering to put on clean clothes.
Mum lives alone but she has help every day from care assistants although she insists anyone has ever been Even despite daily entries in her care book.
Lately she takes out money then does not know what has happened to it but does not want to talk about it. We are very worried someone is entering the house but she is forgetting it.She is so vulnerable.
Is a granny cam a justified?
