My husband has dementia i dont know what stage he still remembers all the family but thinks his mum and dad are still alive and family who are deceased. Albert used to be a farmer so when his sundowner time starts usually about 5.oclock he goes back to farming bringing in the cows ect
I am his only carer I lost my little girl 9 months ago not long after Albert got a serious uti and delirium the social worker at the hospital thought it would be a good idea for him to go into respite while there he had two falls all i could do was see him though the window he started not walking and screamed when anyone touched his right leg
Eventually i informed manager i was taking it further is nothing was done it was hard not being able to go in a district nurse was called and she called an ambulance the hospital scan showed he had a fractured hip which 3 weeks old and started to calcificati so they couldn't operate
He is at home now with carers coming in just to change him
At the moment he is bedridden this is so hard as he wants me there all the calling constantly and does other carer's have there loved one's saying the same thing its usually please help me when are we going home all the time i never go out its so hard sorry about the long story x
