Hi,
I’ve not been on this site lately, but feel the need to ask for some advice if I may?
Both my parents have Alzheimer’s, my dad mixed Alzheimer’s.
Firstly my dad, I feel he is in the the late stages, for the last three weeks, he has had problems with bowl movements, I’m constantly washing bedding, towels and clothing, I’ve mentioned this to his GP, who have booked him for tests in two weeks time. This of course is no help for him or myself until then. He is also sleeping most of the day, and doesn’t get involved in conversation now, and if he does it doesn’t make any sense. I just wondered if anyone else had family or friends at this stage and could advise please?
My mum, has had Alzheimer’s for some years and now her life consists of shuffling around the kitchen, trying to make endless cups of tea. The worst thing is she can be really nasty towards me, I try and do cleaning, cooking her answer to everything I do is “I did it yesterday “, she clearly didn’t. Tells me to go away and never come back. I’ve tried endless times to get help, but they totally refuse, but I feel I need the support of someone going in on a daily basis.
I’m the only person they have going round to the house, friends do ring but nothing else.
What’s your thoughts please?
Thank you
