Hello, this is my first time on here. My father has had Alzheimers for 11 years. My Mother was his main carer even though she had a couple of days respite from 9-3 it was not enough for her to try and relax. She was caring 24 hours a day and was exhousted and died suddenly a week after my dad went into a residential home. He was kicked out of the care home because of his aggression just over 3 years ago and has since been in a nursing home. There is nothing there except his shell anymore. He is on liquidised food and thickened liquids to which is a struggle for him. He aspirated a couple of weeks ago and rushe into Hospital with aspirated pneumonia but has now nearly made a full recovery (well sort of). He is due to go back to the nursing home this evening who left him to get very dehyut they do!drated and I am worried that we will have to go through exactly the same thing again very soon. It's very hard to watch them suffer and being SO helpless.
Anyone else been or going through the same thing?
when you think things can't get any worse but they deffinately do!!
