Dear Good People,
Hope you’re all surviving these new times re: Covid. Strange and difficult especially with a loved one with dementia.
I have a question. Background- Mum had dementia for 10-12yrs and died last Oct 94yrs. Dad looked after her then visited 3 times / week in a nursing home. He’s now on his own and is doing badly. No family bar me, not in U.K. He is nearly blind due to Macular Degeneration and losing his hearing too. When I speak him he’s ok , but not right. Friends have said there’s something going on. Covid hasn’t helped either. I’m wondering if it’s depression or dementia or old age- 89yrs in Jan .
I’ve now been granted POW & POA ,came as a bit of a shock, but was expecting it ,eventually.
I’m hoping ??to get home in the next 2 weeks. Is it time for SS.
Any advice much appreciated. Thanks for listening.
Stay safe and strong you good people. xx
