Re: Not sure what to do !!!
Yes @Shaz51
talking to her doctor soon is wise..
she will not like it ...she really does not like where she is at the moment either...so you are helping her even if it does not feel that way...even if she does not politely thank you either..
you are looking after yourself as well as mum and Mr Shaz at the same time..
you are also using your boundaries..
let the medical staff do their part as well..
I want to tell you also that you really are doing a wonderful job..
as others have said be there for you at the same time..
💛

Re: Not sure what to do !!!
Oh @Shaz51
It's no wonder you are feeling this way, that is emotionally very difficult seeing your darling Mum deteriorate 😔
I am so sorry sweetheart, your dear Mum and then Mr Shaz not coping. Deep breaths Shaz, a cuppa and some, well lots of self care.
You are amazing with all that life throws you. I'm sending you a truck load of love, hugs, strength and whatever you need to navigate these treacherous times xoxo
🌸🌹💕🌻💞🤗

Re: Not sure what to do !!!
Hugs @Shaz51.
I think I feel it the most over how much my Dad has changed as his memory has gotten hazier when I think back to old memories of him. Lots of love, it's not easy.
The things that really stick in the minds of someone with memory loss are the ones that are repeated. So when I talk to Dad, I'll fit in "love you lots" reminders as often as possible. Wondering if there's any simple messages, verbal or visual, that would make your Mum feel more secure and that could be repeatedly reinforced?

Re: Not sure what to do !!!
I agree @Smc
And I think changing downstairs in to mum's new bedroom is going to be a challenge as the steps into the house is getting too hard for her
