Hi all, my dad has vascular dementia and lives with only me. (89 yo) Carer twice a day.
Wants to go to bed for the afternoon after lunch, and goes to bed 6.30-7.00pm in the evening. Cant get him to last any longer but as soon as he is on his frame (being assisted to bed) he makes up a little song on his way to bed and then sings periodically in bed, sometimes on and off for quite a few hours. I am listening out most of the time so I can tell the difference between him singing or calling for me. Been happening the last couple of months.
Is this a common occurrence?
