Sometimes I find it difficult to post certain things, just worried about how others will feel when reading, still trying to keep mum's Dementia behind closed doors I guess. However have to get it out there don't we.
I am discovering that mum's behaviour is becoming more toddler like, especially at meal times. Her juice is often poured onto her main meal and then her hands get into it and she just plays, sometimes spreading it all over the table. So now I only give her a drink after meal has been eaten and plates cleared away..
Her walking is getting a little unsteady too. Sometimes I think she will fall over after taking a few steps, similar to a child learning to walk and of course I cannot get her to use any walking aids.
Her fiddling items are definitely child like and of course her speech is going that way. The daughter has definitely become the mother.
