Hello, my mum passed away suddenly 8 weeks ago she was full time carer for my dad who has been diagnosed with alzheimer's. Me & my husband worked full time & had a busy life. We decided to move in with dad to care for him, we feel very nieve to what my mum was having to cope with. I have given up work, my husband had 6 weeks off work to help at the being but has now returned to work, he works 11 hour days & I am really struggling to cope with dad on my own. Dad wants to be doing things all the time but has limited mobility, he asks every morning, what are we doing today if I say nothing ( I have jobs to do) he'll say his sick of sitting in his chair all the time. if we go to the shops he can't manage very far, unless he has a trolley to push, he refuses to use a stick or a walker. I had 2 dogs of my own & mum had just got a puppy, everytime I go to take the dogs out he wants to come when i say he can't walk very far he say of course I can. it's starting to get me down. The last couple of weeks we've had wallet gate, he wants money in is wallet, keeps getting it out & counting it, then hides it in his room at night then acusses someone of taking it, when we finally find it he says he hasn't put it there. I know its part of the illness but it's so hard.
