Hey all, been a few weeks since I’ve ranted. So many here are suffering so I decided to deal with things by myself.
But I do have one question and I’m not sure if I’m answering rightly.
Mum has an afternoon nap(which I encourage otherwise she will be up all night). After her afternoon nap, majority of the time she thinks it’s morning to the borderline of an argument. Yesterday, she jokingly said “perhaps I should take the Alzheimer’s test!!” Quick reply from me told her she has and has dementia. She wasn’t upset, triggered a thought which has gone today. Do I tell her she has Dementia? Do I remind her? Half the time I’m battling her with things such as bills.. (she doesn’t even know what a kitchen is now!) but states she’s still right etc. I call myself a dustpan and brush. Clearing up and sorting the mess she’s adamant that’s right
just a few thoughts x
