Am new to all this. My mum diagnosed with dementia just after Christmas, after a 4 week spell in hospital, which seemed to accelerate hugely the dementia. My Dad then went into hospital and has just been in and out again.
hey were planning to move before all this happened and are still doing so. Downsizing from a big house, after 52 years, to a great ground floor flat for people over 65, with a part time warden.
I know a move is not ideal, but does anyone who has done it, have any advice. At the moment, we are regularly visiting the new place, as it is empty and the people selling are fantastic and understanding. Have drawn Mum a map, so she can plan where her furniture goes.
Any advice would be more than welcome. I live about an hour away but am regularly with them both.
