I am going crazy!! from the time I moved in with my mom her disease has progressed, she becomes so mean and hurtful she had me in tears a few times. i don't know what to do anymore, I am desperate in need of help. she does not trust me and makes up all these lies hides her bank cards, she doesn't understand that she has medical bills that need to be paid and for her personal use. she hides everything and doesn't know where she put it.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. My mom was just diagnosed but is obviously in stage 6. She is having tons of hallucinations & paranoia. I am trying to gain strength for the future by arming myself with information.
i have also notice that the person is sleeping longer hours
I watched this to learn more about Joe Biden.
I've always been a list maker. If I have a lot of boring, mundane things to do at least I feel I've achieved something at the end of the day!!
Is my mom between phase 5 and six? She's confused where she is (nursing home). She still seems to have good memory, but can't do things for herself any more. She just sits there all the time. She is very demanding, calls and messages several times a day. Constantly has demands about seeing doctors, needing medicines, certain foods, this goes on all the time. We are far from her and busy with our lives and cannot cater to her every whim. She on and off forgets to use her phone, will then swear at me, not realizing I can hear her, even when she can't hear me. I'm having a tough time. We were never close. I was physically abused by her my entire childhood.
I kept waiting to see the 7 stages. Took at least five minutes to even get to stage 1. Should have shown it up front.
my Darling husband seems to be progressing so quickly...he is nearly non verbal except for a sentence or two and short sentences. seeing his beautiful smile and him crying are lesser and lesser...we listen to his favourite songs and he used to cry and now, his eyes just seems empty of emotions but I know, he is listening...I tell him...how much I love him and I would never leave him...that was his fear when he was still more lucid...he would say...to never leave him and I assured him...I never will...I am with him daily at the Care center daily...travelling 3 bus rides each way...I love him soooo much and pray that he would not suffer in the end...looking back over the 15 yrs...he has had the symptoms and this last 4 yrs....I knew something was not right...but he refused to see a Specialist until the day, he had to be rushed to emergency...I pray for all patients suffering with this illness as well as their loved ones grieving the loss of a beautiful mind and soul....Thank you for this video.
Thank You so much! What 'stage' is Paranoid? They accuse you of stealing when they actually misplace. Accuse everyone of stealing.
My loved one started to hide 'valuable' things about nine-ten years ago. She didn't put them in a lockbox--she hid them. I put it down to her usual paranoia, but now I'm wondering if it was a sign... especially since she would forget where she hid them sometimes.
Beautiful job again; love you Vicki!
