Mum is still progressively getting worse! Very confused, Even thought she seems happy as ever! (60 years old had AD for 5 years, lives with my dad, im at uni so come home when i can!)
Recently she has been getting up in the middle of the night and walking around shouting things such as:
'mummy'
'i need to get out' etc etc (she seems to be sleep walking)
she also acts out things and has recently acted out looking after a baby, the only way she went to sleep is because my dad said he would look after the 'baby' for the night.
It has happened about 5 times now in the last month and i have seen it twice, she normally knows who everyone is but in her dreams had no idea who my dad is and when i went in she told me that she has no idea who this man is, when i explained who he was she then realised and got back into bed and said oh yes of course and slept through!
Theses dreams could go on for hours on end leaving my dad exhausted in the morning! It doesnt happen every night but lasts far to long!
Has anyone else experienced this, have any advice or know what to do to stop it?
Thanks Laurenx
