Hi,
I aren't sure what stage of dementia Mam is at really but yesterday when I went she was still in bed, although it was early quarter to ten when I went but she's never in bed that time and she just nods off so easily. I took her to the Drs for a check up and in the waiting room her head kept lolling really low and she was asleep, you know when you have to push their body back up.
Even in the Drs Mam was nodding off. Apparently she blacked out yesterday for a few seconds at the home as well. She also looks so thin. She does have co morbidities though and recently due to anaemia had a transfusion.
Is it normal to be so sleepy, since going in the home she is a different person, I don't mean it's the home but I didn't think she would be so rapidly declining.
It's such a worry, as I keep waiting for a phone call to say she has fallen and broken something, I don't want her to go into hospital as she goes hundred times worse.
