My grandmother is almost blind and since last year when she broke her femur she and my grandfather have a 24 hour caretaker living with them. Recently, she started to think that she is not in her flat. My mother and I speculate that she remembers that 30 years ago she was living in a big house which they had to sell then.
In about a month a neurologist will come to see her but I was wondering how best to respond to her in the meantime. At the moment we just reassure her that she is in her own flat.
Just use your imagination and try to come up with something that will help her anxiety about where she is... sometimes if they think, no matter how temporary, that they will be 'going' home soon, it helps.... let us know what you come up with... hugs
