Getting mum to have a shower.

[Susan.J.]

Hi Moorcroft. My Mum does similar things. I used to worry about her not taking daily showers, she usually showers every 2 days, the other days she washes herself in the handbasin. Try gently saying to her that you will take a shower first, that way she can take as long as she wants in the shower. I do this for her regarding her teeth cleaning and it usually works. An aromatherapy body wash can help, lavender is very relaxing and calming, Mum always remarks at how refreshed she feels after using it. Good luck.
