    I admire the way you persist in letting your Mum have a choice of the clothes she is going to wear. Even if the process of getting her dressed can still be difficult, you are adding to her dignity, and to her feeling of self worth and autonomy. You are doing so well with that precious lady. X

      I agree with this sentiment! It may feel easier to just make all the decisions all the time. If you think about it it would make every day a fight and so much harder than the hardest day now. Your thoughtful kindness and love help her to remember the gentle loving soul that still lives inside! God bless!

    I absolutely love how calm you are!🫶🏻🥰And, not that I should laugh, but hilarious how there are a few cryptic “words” your Mom uses🤣😂🤣😂And love the “pretty pretty pretty” at the end!😊💜

    You worded it perfectly sweetheart. Yes it is vital to stay calm and patient and it can and does take a toll on the ones caring for people with dementia it can become emotionally draining, but to stop and a few moments from time to time and thinking about the reasons your there and what the goal is , is a must so that those caring for them don't get caught up or lose site of what's needed for there loved one's care and health. You and your family are doing an amazing job taking care of Cindy. And im certain that in her moments of clarity she is so proud of the women her girls has grown up to be. ❤

      They're quite normal and expected with alzheimers/dementia, especially as it progresses. What these daughters do to keep the calm is important

    Did she always use bad language? I worked in a nursing home and a client had awful talk and the children said she never cursed in her life… I would NOT want the world to hear me or see me the way she is…. But what a wonderful caregiver you seem to be, and I commend you for helping your Mom, many would not.

    • @lisao7600
      @lisao7600 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Even if she did they are just words. Humans decided those words were "bad". It's just a way to convey frustration. I don't get why some people are offended by it. If someone cursed in a language you didn't understand you wouldn't even know. My point is that they are just words that humans created and decided that they were "bad" because they mean you are upset. Saying darn you or F you means the same thing technically it's just someone decided darn was less offensive.
      I worked with people with dementia for a couple years as a nurse. They are frustrated because they don't often understand what is going on around them. They are just getting the frustration out. They aren't trying to purposely offend or curse anyone.

    I absolutely adore your mother and watching and learning about your Wonderful, Patient Care you give her. My mom was diagnosed in 2018 and she is in the final stages I understand. She is completely Bedridden with little to no speech. Hospice Nurse thankfully comes 3 times a week to Bathe her and check her vitals. So we are Grateful to be able to keep her hopefully to the end. My mother will be 92 in August and am just so surprised how young your mother is! May I ask you her age and how long she has had this terrible disease? I can honestly say this by far has been the cruelest. As I tend to worry about the hereditary with this… you are doing an Amazing Job with your Beautiful mother. God Bless all of you. ❤️🙏🏻’s

    I was a caregiver for my mom with Parkinson’s and dementia and it’s so hard for them especially someone needing to help them get dressed or getting the shower that was my biggest struggle with my mother I dont blame them having to be so vulnerable with their body whether it’s your daughter or spouse helping has got to be so hard and you are doing a fantastic job

    Patience and understanding is the key and you’ve definitely got that. I don’t underestimated how tough it is for you and your family but you are all AMAZING and a credit to you mum ❤❤

    I’m a sole caregiver to my husband with Alzheimer’s. I gotta get up three times a night almost every night to change his diaper and clothes because they are wet. That is just one challenge among others. It’s hard to keep positive when you got to get up every morning having been up all night and do it all over again.

      My heart goes out to you! I was the sole caregiver of my mom who had Lewy Body dementia for 3 straight months a couple years ago…..it was the most emotionally and physically exhausting job I’ve ever done in my entire life. I highly recommend you seek out assistance and have someone else come in a few times a week to help out and allow yourself a break! As much as we love them….it becomes soul draining and the endless cycle of lack of ANY sleep (my mom had sundowners as well) plus around the clock care can actually cause the caregiver to become sick. I’m praying for you.
