This last week, dad's mental state has declined dramatically. Up to then, we could have a very basic conversation on Skype. He could at least exchange a few words for a minute or so. This week, he's managed a hello then immediately asked for music. I play him his favourite Irish folk songs on Skype. He mouths along to one or two then he's in a rush to get off.
His dementia hasn't been a constant decline; it's been a series of sudden drops, like walking down steps. He started crying at the end of our song today. I am feeling very depressed about all this. I've had a constant headache for 2 days. I think it's also because a friend of mine is hospitalized in a coma. It's been one hell of a week.
