My dad has been diagnosed with Alziemers and has just recently taken a dip for the worse.
This has meant that amongst other things he no longer seems to be able to work out the tv remote control.
This has impacted hugely as he loves to watch sport on tv and would spend a good amount of time doing this.
My step mum has tried to leave it all turned on and set up for him to watch something but then when she comes home after a few hours he is in a pickle and very cross because he's pressed something and it's not on anymore.
It's particularly pertinant at the moment as he's been trying to watch the world cup. Obviously this is ok if someone is with him but not if he's on his own.
Has anyone come across the same and do you have any advice on any strategy/piece of equipment that has helped?
thanks
