No one could ever prepare you for the heartache as the later stages of Alzheimer's take place.
My susie has deteriated so fast in the last few weeks it is frightening. Halucinations,fear, suspicion,flashbacks, are happening all at once, medication is not helping other than lorazapan to try and calm her for a short period.
In agreement with her specialist we will not let her go in to hospital as she fears this so much,it may give me respite but no more can be done for her than I can do,she is my life,the pain I and my family feel,is nothing compared to the fear in Susie,sreaming, sobbing for hous at a time,no one can comprehend what is truly happening in her head.
Has anyone experience of this behaviour and what did you find to help them
