My mom is now place in a memory care unit. They have her on a lot of medicine that is keeping her calm for now. She wants to come home but I have explained the best I can that she needs a doctor's care 24 hours a day to keep her from going out again with her hallucinations. She doesn't remember anything that happened for 3 weeks. If you have read any of my prior comments you will see my mom was in bad shape when we finally landed in the emergency room. All of you on here I want to thank you for helping me stay sane....Hugs and love to all, I will continue to give updates on my mom.
I just wanted to thank people like you because no one in my family has ever had this disease. Her symptoms came fast and I was not prepared. I almost felt like hurting my own self before finding this site. I just want people to know how much they helped me. I gave the social worker who helped me get a place that would even take my mom about this site. I told him what a life saver it had been for me. Again thanks! I pray for all of you everyday.
Use as many "theraputic fibs" as you can to keep Mom at that Memory Care. Tell her her home is being painted, or the street is torn up, or a pipe burst and it will take awhile to get everything cleaned up.
Hope everything will work well for her and for you. Yes, keep us updated.
