Hi all
am feeling very down today. Should at this moment be at the Memory clinic with mum to hopefully trial drugs for her early dementia. But alas am not. Mum had a massive wobbly yesterday and refused to go. She broke down and said she was just too tired and afraid of side effects from drugs. We all tried very hard to persuade her without any luck. It was so frustrating and as you can imagine there was no reasoning with her. I am not angry with her just so disappointed. Maybe i just put too much emphasis on this thinking it would be the answer to all our prayers. For some reason i have cried buckets but i cant explain why. I think it has been such a rollercoaster over the last year and we worked so hard for this day andnow this. The memory clinic were amazing and have offered to send someone out to have a chat with mum and to give her a further appt. I have put this on hold for a little while as mum is in a very anxious state.
I am sure there are lots of you who have been through this and worse but just needed to air my thoughts.
Thanks for listening
Take care
