Just love them..NOT! I
I had my 2nd cousins funeral a couple of weeks ago. 84 years old and 10 years with Alzheimers.About 7 years last stage and unconscious.
Anyway what really got on my goat was her sister saying to me” I’ve spoken to your father and he didn’t feel like coming.“Then rambled on about dad and the funeral.
I couldn’t help it. My mouth opened and “I said if she was that worried she could organise a carer or lugg him up the steps herself in his wheelchair.!”
I knew she had spoken to dad as I had to phone her and had to hand the phone over to him.
She has phoned him at home and then phoned me to ask is he still in the home as no answer. Just what I needed today.
Then she asks”Has he declined being in the home?” This from a nurse..
I said “He has but he was declining anyway “But dad puts on a good front when she is around.
Then she asked me “Will I be around at dads this week “
“ Not much” I reply as carers going in more often.
She always asks me that. I wonder why!
Funny how she never asks about my mum though , who is actually her FIRST cousin and no relation to dad at all!
