My dad has alzheimers with vascular dementia hes 85. Mum is his carer with support from me and my sister shes 78 with a recently healed broken leg. Things are not good at the moment and dad has dipped. He has no short term memory. I feel we are coping ok, he is incontient but we are dealing with that too. Its the constant moving about 'he has to be busy doing jobs'. yesterday one of the jobs was painting the neighbours wall with gloss paint !! I had to use paint stripper to get it off. He breaks things and floods things . Its like he has ADHD. I have asked mum to take things away paintbrushes etc . She just wont do it. I am at my wits end here . Is there medication to clam him down he seems in a manic state all the time
