My 88 year old mother has dementia. She is still living at home and for the most part is in pretty good shape. But she repeats herself over and over again. It is irritating to me. Sometimes it is scolding me over and over again. Is this normal for a dementia patient to do and how do you guys handle it?
There is a great article written by an AgingCare.com Editor that was already posted in our community. We thought this might answer your caregiving question.
