My mum was diagnosed In Jan at 70 With vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s and I have seen her deteriorate rapidly, prob partly due to lockdown but I’m also guessing it is just part of the illness. She has lost 2 stone in weight from just pacing around constantly and she will say things like ‘what’s happening? What am I doing? Im
Ok’ this is constant. She can’t really have a conversation apart from to say ‘I’m fine’ and other short answers but will never ask me how I am or my children, one of whom has just turned 4 months old. I need my mum more than ever but she is just not there.
is it bad that I want her to get a Terminal disease and pass away? Is that really mean? I had to wipe her bottom when I last visited as she has starting picking faeces ? My mum would have never wanted to be like this.
Dad does everything and is struggling. Hubby, myself and the kids are moving in until sept to try and support . Sorry for the long post, I just needed to rant somewhere x
