Hi, 👋 hope you’re all okay. Both my parents have mid to late stage Alzheimer’s and it’s a living nightmare at times. Some days are amazing, when they’re smiling and connected but others are so painful to watch. They are both in residential care. Just wanted to connect with others for any coping tips.

Welcome to the forum @Denny B I`m so sorry to hear about your parents and hope the support you receive here will help.

Both my parents had dementia but at different times. I don`t know which is worse.

Are your parents in the same care home or do you have to visit separate homes?

Keep posting and let us know how you are.

Welcome from me too @Denny B. It must be hard having both parents living with dementia. I’m glad you’ve found this forum. You’ll find understanding and support here.
