Hi - new to these forums and out of desperation really. Apologies if this the incorrect section to post this.
I was wandering if anyone could help if they have shared anything similar. We live in the UK. My parent was diagnosed with blood droplet alzheimers - and to cut a long story short - we feel he is being abused - emotionally/physically and financially.
We have notified GP's, Social Services etc - but the (original) family are sick with worry. Everything seems to be so slow and with various confidentiality restrictions it is difficult. We really dont know what to do for the best, do we involve the police? My parent remarried prior to any serious decline. My parent now has frequent loss of total memory, flashbacks, strange ramblings about things (which are fascinating to listen to and take part with). GPs have been called out a few times so his condition is worsening.
Has anyone else experienced this and that may be able to offer any advices.
Thanks.
