Hi everyone, I'm new here. I've been awake for an hour crying because I miss my mum. She's still here physically but her dementia has recently worsened to the extent we can't talk about things anymore. I can still hug her at least but I need her advice and I miss the way she stood up for me. I miss going for lunch with her. We recently put her into a beautiful care home (11th Dec) things were becoming so bad caring for her at home. She now looks the best I've seen her in about 10 years. How are we supposed to cope with missing someone who is still there?
