I am looking for some advice, my mother has been diagnosed with having a form of dementia. she has been show signs for years by having short term memory loss but unfortunately my father passed away a few months ago and she is getting worse.
She has carers go in 3 times a day to help get her meals, but she is incredibly lonely, and needs to get some help, she doesn't want to live by herself, although she has a big house it is not possible for my sister or myself to move in with her, and we don't have room for her to move into one of our houses.
I find it very difficult to go and spend time with her because she get violent towards me.
What can we do to help her.
Claire
