A bad day always follows a bad night
As you know i had such a bad night on Friday, that was followed by a horrendous day yesterday (thankfully last night was a little better Elaine says).
After i bad night i feel so detached, so away from it, hard to explain really but its really is like i am watching all thats going on around but i am not really there, so very surreal, my moods are low and swing from lower to lower,. I sat in the car and watched the world go by and yet,? I felt as if i didnt belong and was in a very strange place. Elaine asked what i was doing with my hands as they were making strange movements and signals but i had no answer, just very confused.
The day just seemed to melt into one and every now and again i would shout out as a Night terror came thundering back into focus and just for a second i was back in the Horrific world that is dementia's nightmare.This is just a snapshot of my day and there are many out there a lot worse than me who have to go through this regularly and daily and my heart will forever go out to them and their carers.
As always, and something we must never forget is there is two sides to every story, and as bad as it is for us with dementia, please spare a thought of all loved ones and carers who have to try and make sense of all this when it must not only seem impossible to do but also whats happening makes no sense whatsoever to them or anybody else who see us act in the way we do.
This is DEMENTIA`S NIGHTMARE
