Hi - My Mother has had Vascular Dementia now for around 15 months and it has progressively got worse. My Dad is her full time carer now and I have been trying my best to support him and help him through the process of getting SS support. The A Society is also involved now and providing 4 hours a week rest for him with home visits.
At the moment the most difficult thing to deal with is my Mothers constant talking. In the evening my Dad just cant get any peace and quiet as my Mum is just constantly talking - telling him she loves him, talking sentences but making no sense. My Dad will just tell her he loves her to but to be quiet - to which Mum says I will and then carries on talking! I actually think it is driving my Dad to the edge.
I have told him to talk to the doctor and see is she can prescribe her anything to calm her down. Any advice would be appreciated before my Dad flips! Thanks Gary
