Hi all,
Just when we thought dementia was leaving our lives for ever !
(Mum passed away 6 weeks ago)
Sorry can't give too many details as the main person concerned hasn't given permission for release yet.
BUT
our cousin who has been in Oz for around 40 yrs and is being treated for early onset AZ now wants to "come home" - he will be destitute, homeless etc and SS have already advised NIL help in the UK. Because of particular family circs. wife and all have washed their hands.
Hope that the "coming home" is sundowning but if not and he manages to get the fare together is there any way we can get him sectioned from here , or stop him getting on the plane ?
Appreciate very difficult because of lack of detail but I have absolutely no knowledge of Aus systems re dementia and care etc.
Appreciate any down under pals giving their thoughts.
regards
germain
