Stay strong. That young boy of yours is very precious
Dementia changes the person who has it. Nothing they can do about the changes that happen to them, but that's what we are for, we carers, we are the ones who need to be emotionally strong to make difficult decisions, that the person with dementia would make, if they could.
My mum, if she was aware, would have been heart broken if she realised how badly affected her adored grandchild has become, because she was living with us with her dementia
When I decided m needed a care home, I was told by others at the time, I was rushing mum into care, it was too early
Mums dementia decline has been rapid. She has gone from a lady who actively joined in activities, at times suggested and ran activities at the care home, to not being aware of anything much around her within 3 years of being in care.
It's not an easy decision to move someone away from the family home.... But it's essential to do so, especially if your line in the sand has been reached..... Any form of affect on a young child.... That's the line that should be listened to.... Not your personal line
