I have been reading everything I can about Alzheimer's and what to expect- not the same as living it, as you all know... Dad has had a blank face for last year. No expression, but will talk to me sometimes, rarely, doesn't make much sense- but always nice to hear him talk! he's back on his feet after pneumonia, but shuffling..His swallowing is very obviously poor now- even on puréed diet he coughs after every mouthful. Today, I noticed he had a marked tremor in his hands. Couldn't guide spoon to his mouth because of it. But.... He was the best mentally I'd seen him in a a few weeks- although his face was still 'blank'. I remember a couple of years ago when dad was at home, with 24hour care, him telling me about a long conversation he'd had with my mum( who had passed away) I did tell his CPN at the time. I'm now wondering, / worrying- has dad always had Lewy body dementia not Alzheimer's??? should his treatment have been different??? Hope this ramble makes sense.
