Good morning
Mom has been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's just recently. Although we suspected that this is what the diagnosis would most likely be it was still a shock. Mom's decline in respect to her memory and confusion slowly started to become very apparent. I am looking at as much information as possible to find the best ways we can help support her. Mom will be starting medication today which is encouraging. She has become quite reclusive over the last couple of months,not wanting to go out anywhere. Yesterday I managed to get her to come out with me and some family members for lunch. She enjoyed this tremendously and said she is looking forward to getting out a bit more. That is a huge positive ?we are looking at attendance allowance and I have found a lovely little local dementia group which we are going to attend next week to try it out. This is what I have managed to get done so far
