Hi there,
Will be seeing my mil in a couple of weeks and wondering what to tell my bright boys, if anything, before we see her. We haven't seen mil for a year, I am expecting to see a deterioration in conversation and concerned about her being overemotional. Apparently she talks about the dementia a lot, I am not sure what is appropriate for the kids, do I divert and distract if possible if I am not happy about the conversation? She is not at a stage so far as I am aware that she is not in control of what she is saying( apart from word confusion etc) but low and everything centres around her thoughts and beliefs. Thanks.
