Hi all I'm new here but not new to Dementia world, this is due to my step dad, he is so very important to me, he started to become immobile 22 weeks ago and been in and out of hospital consecutive ever since, sadly the hardest thing was finding the nursing home, this was 4 weeks ago. He has only spent 9 days there always in and out of hospital, as a family we spend from 3-7pm every day in the hospital, 30 miles one way , it's so draining and as you all understand It's not understandable. We went in walking, and now hoisted, in a full wrap around pad and can barely communicate nice things. Obviously palliative care, today I've had to speak to the nurse in charge about how we say enough is enough We do have a DNR in place ,but what else can we do, he is suffering and half the weight he was last year. For his own good today the family( mum) decided ok enough! Sadly I have a good understanding of how Dementia, end of life and palliative is due to being a team manager for a care company, this I feel makes it harder for me, work is work but when it's your family? Wow it's something different. I don't know what I want from anyone just anything in way as support or maybe advice to discuss what TLC at the home would mean.. Thanks in advance x
