Hello I am still a relative newcomer to the world of dementia and all it's challenges. My stepdad was only diagnosed recently but has deteriorated quickly. My mum is his main carer but I am helping sort out all the professionals input and provide support to them both, especially my Mum.
Tonight he has accused my mum, again, of poisoning him and says he is going to call the police and the doctor in the morning. He says its funny how he only feels ill and tired at home and not at his day centre. He has even set his alarm to do it. We are hoping he will have forgotten by the morning but its just so heart breaking.
Just wanted to get it off my chest. It's all happened so quickly and we've no idea how to deal it it. I'm sure everyone feels like that though.
Thanks for listening. Reading everyone's posts on here really helps.
