I have posted ref OH having dementia. She diagnosised last November and in January we have added Motor Neurone Disease as well now. The third is not "a disease" I call it the Golden Routine. This is OH daily routine in her head that everything is comfortable, say good morning/night, there is nothing wrong with me and that She does not need outside help "Hubble does that for me".
Dementia does not help with Motor Neurone (MND) especially if you have to cope with UTI as well. She has had some falls, 2 were a & e jobs head bleeding wounds. Again this was not waking me to help in the night.
The reason for post is does anyone care for someone with a set routine which is in their minds and not the carer? And yes we have carer for 30mins a day to try and get caring by others into the routine, only works if I am there.
Also GP has set up meeting with Dementia people, MND help and hopefully care management to see if they have way forward for my sake as well as OH.
Any knowledge would be a help.
