Hi, advice please. My Mum has Alzheimers and lives with me. It's just the two of us and has been since my Dad died in 2008.
We have a weeks holiday booked in September to Scotland an area we go to every year. My doctor and the memory clinic want me to put Mum in respite for the week and go on my own. I'm very tempted because I can't remember the last time I had a good nights sleep or any me time apart from when I'm at work! But Mum knows about the holiday and has told people at her daycare about it.
What should I do?
I'm so tired and she is such hard work now.
