My mum was diagnose with vascular dementia a couple of years ago and has slowly got worst with her memory and day to day activities. Her personality has also changed were she has become aggressive to her family. My mum has always been the most gentle, clean lady and would help anyone with anything. Now all she wants to do is sit at home with my dad (who is 81 and fine health wise) mum has stopped washing, showering or having a bath and it is braking my heart to see this happening to my mum. When ever you mention having a bath, shower etc she get really cross. We have tried all sorts of ways to get her to wash but in her mind she is having a wash and no one can say any different. If anyone has been through a similar experience please could you advise us on any tips to change this situation.
