Hi all,
Mum was diagnosed approx 4 years ago and progression has been quite rapid. She lives in London and has done for the last 50 years...but she was born and raised in Ireland and is getting very confused about where she is.
She often talks about visiting neighbours in Ireland as though they are just around the corner. She is also asking Dad "when are we going back to ireland" or "when are you taking me back to London". Dad is finding it very hard to answer correctly and mum is getting very angry with him (pulling off wedding rings/saying marriage is over/calling him horrible names etc).
This often seems to happen at night time but is becoming more frequent during the day time.
If anyone has had similar experiences and can share any tips on how you're dealing with things I'd love to hear !
Many thanks.
