hello all!
Would hugely appreciate any thoughts on this.
Mum has been in a NH for about a month now. My visits have dwindled to once a week due to my own poor health of late. I've noticed her becoming less animated and connected to me each time I visit. Is my not visiting her detrimental to our connection? I am sure there is a broad range of potential responses to this, and each person with a diagnosis and their familes is different..but..I would really be grateful to hear from anyone who may have experienced similar feelings. I feel like the less I visit, the less connected to me she is. is this all in my head or is it a common experience and part of their journey in a NH?
Thanks all so much.
