Dementia

I did not have this issue with my parents but did have cancer. I hope that you will have some help. I am sorry to hear this.

@giannna I had my father at hospital today because of his dementia. It can only get worse and he knows that which is upsetting.

I wish her all the best. My mother-in-law has it, and my father-in-law passed away a few years ago from it.

I'm sorry your mother is sick with dementia. My late father had it too.

I'm sorry to hear that. I have no experience, but I believe it is difficult for you.

@Giannna I have no experience with dementia otherwise I would be happy to help you.

I somehow can understand your situation as tough one. I am fortunate that I didn't have any experience that one except for my Mother in Law that was slowly going towards that. She passed away already but I had a few years that I was able to witness her slow degradation from reality. But it was cut short when she had a heart attack that shortened her life so it was just a few years that I was able to witness that. I saw her change from one mood to another and her being catatonic at times which is worrying as well.

I went through that with both my mom and my dad. It was tough time but I look back with fondness at the time I spend with them, right to the end.

My mom did not have dementia, but I took care of her when she was dying of lung cancer.

My grandmother developed it in her old age and passed away at 96. It's awful at any age. I'm so sorry for you and your mother.

Welcome to myLot. I hope you enjoy it here. I am sorry your mother is sick. It is very tough at the moment because of the pandemic.

I am so sorry to hear this :/ I didn't have, but I have an uncle with cancer. It's very hard nowadays to find a place in a hospital, to receive his treatment and everything.. I wish you all the best. Don't give up!
