My wife is going that way too. Eats a sweet cereal for breakfast, and in between it's biscuits. At lunchtime (I try to keep a routine) though she will eat a cob filled with anything tasty. After that, though, its back to the biscuits. Sweet fruit helps, like oranges or soft pears. Hard to get her to eat after that. Not on he subject of food, has anyone come across the person they are caring for cutting their hair ( badly )? Our hairdresser came today, and spotted it. I thought I had successfully hidden all the scissors , but I think she found the nail scissors in the bathroom. Didn't count them as scissors. Now they are also hidden. She now has continence problems, the Community Nurse service are coming to assess her next week. It is heart breaking to see.
She still recognise me, and knows her relatives, but when with me, she sits and stares at me, when I ask if she needs anything, she says no, so when I ask why are you staring? she has no answer. Anyone had this experience? Sometimes, as a carer, you feel so alone. Good job we have the forum.
