First I would like to say that my Mum was a very strong person, in all my life I have never seen her cry, and if she did not want to do something, there would be no way you would get her to do it.
I care for my Mum, and up till now I have been able to keep her settled and happy. However lately she has been getting upset because she wants to go home! I have asked her where home is? and she does not know, I went down to see her and she was crying because she wanted to go home. We took her out for a ride in the car and she seemed better. However we went today to see her and all her plants were gone and she had a bag packed, her coat and handbag were out and she was looking out the window for someone to come. I asked her where her plants had gone and she said "I gave them to the men who came to cut the grass". Also she offered to give me some things. You guessed it, she thinks she is leaving her home.
Any ideas as to what I can do to help Mum realise that she is home.
