Just come back from Mum's house - 5 minutes away. She has dementia and is very frail. She is also incontinent now and has carers 4 times a day and Meals on Wheels twice a day. However, she is very easy going and really not much trouble to anyone. Part of me feels that I should just move in with her (with my 2 dogs!) as I worry about her being lonely. However, she sleeps a lot of the time now and might find my dogs disruptive.I think I felt bad going leaving her on her own in the family house although a carer comes in at about 8pm to get her ready for bed.
I realise that she may well become more difficult as the disease progresses and the plan had been that she should go into care at some point. What have others done in this situation?
