Please, “Take her to her doctor”, need not apply. Been there, done that.
Mind altering drugs??? She is already on 10/day.
Heart, blood clot, mood elevator, fluid, more heart, GERD, aspirin, Vitamins, ........
The nonstop questions of who is my boyfriend who comes in the middle of the night....whistles at me, where does he work......
It's no longer funny....it is so monotonous and annoying.
Getting up and rummaging through her drawers for stashed money.....which is not there.
My son gave it to her????
Never happened.
You cannot get through to them.
This is REAL dementia. And it is tough, exhausting.....
There is no "reward in heaven" worth the price everyone pays for advanced dementia here on earth, that's for sure.
I will consider it a blessing when my 94 year old mother passes and thank God her suffering is over. I wouldn't wish dementia on my worst enemy.
