Oh the loud, rude comments! I dread having to go with mum to a hospital or similar. She's always been a horrible racist but these days she lets
everyone know. Several times I've wished the ground would open up and swallow me. Or her.
Back in the early days we took her on holiday where she complained loudly about absolutely everything. That week made me realise my fears that she had dementia were well-grounded. The worst time was when she went to 'coo' over a woman's baby. She leaned down into the pram then turned to me and said very loudly, 'My god, what an ugly baby!'
Mum never took sugar, now she wants it 'there on the saucer so I can eat it'.
