I know I have asked this before, but mum is so much calmer now with anti psychotics, she has been in emi carehome for 2 years now. Speech gets muddled and some incontinence, difficulty eating, using knife, fork not sure what to do, how to, but mum is still "there". Dad is great, despite being in recovery from lymphoma, prostate cancer he has returned to work a couple of days he is mid 70s as is mum, and he takes mum out (as do I) he helps her put her lipstick on , look nice, and they go out for a meal, walk, picnic in car. He wonders, as do I about the possibility of during a visit bringing mum back home, maybe saying it's my house, and cooking her a meal, cup of tea, sitting in garden, she often has a little snooze, but it's the unknown of how she would be returning to carehome. Mum puts up with it but it's not home and she relaxes when she comes out. I think we feel we need to do as much as we can for mum and give her some happiness in her lonely life. It's also hard to keep thinking of places to take mum, especially in the cold, wet weather. Any thoughts would be helpful, thank you
