I try daily to understand how this disease works. Dementia is really triffling! I speak to Mom daily but at times shes angry and sound like my Mom. Then a few minutes later shes sounding lost and afraid. Her words are fine when angry but when shes afraid she cant get words out. Really hurts to see her this way. Ive learned to agree to everything good or bad cause if not its a fight and I dont like seeing her this way. Its scary that I am afraid to be around her but at same time I miss her. I feel Im lying to her each time she talks of getting home. Shes in an assisted mental facility. I take care of getting her toiletries. She believes she will go home soon. I just need to understand the mood changes and what goes through their thoughts..
Been there, done that...It's hard.
