That's really difficult for you @Palerider I'm sure. I'm guessing Mum isn't able to communicate very well via the 'phone (I know my Mum struggled with that as the dementia got worse). I wish you all the best. Take care of yourself.
Hi @Pete1
I did think of a phone call, but mum can't use it anymore so pointless trying. The carers do send pics of residents to family but its not the same as visiting. Will just have to suck it up until things get better
