It's been a tough night, first mum would not settle and got up after the carer had put her to bed at 8pm, then she woke up at 2am having soiled the kylie sheets. I got up and changed her and the kylie sheets, put on The Darling Buds of May which she likes to watch, got her a drink and put the heater on but she still tries to get up every hour.
Any suggestions?
I know the advice is to sleep when the person with dementia sleeps and let them wander but we live in a three room bungalow (we sleep in a room each) so that is not practical and she would wake up dad. Also I have to go to work so I really need a good nights sleep.
