That's so sad
I'm assuming Alzheimer's - is she on that new med, or is she passed that point?
She's on a lot of different meds... she's fading in spite of them. She has some lucid moments and some that are off-the-wall. I'm usually depressed after seeing her.
I'm really happy that she got to meet one of my friends at Thanksgiving. She enjoyed that! Little things like that mean a lot now.
I'm sorry to hear this, SC. It can be very trying.
Unfortunately, my family has much experience in this - on both sides of my family. My paternal grandmother lived the last 15 years of her life in senility from the disease. My Uncle Jack, her oldest, lived with her, and would have to drive her to "her mother's" every night 4-5 times at all hours. Her mother had died 50 years earlier, and when she would see the vacant lot where her mother's house was, she'd be good...for ten minutes or two hours.
