My 81-year-old MIL has vascular dementia. She lived with us until it became too difficult for me to help her. She is now in a Memory Care Facility. The last couple of times that my husband visited her she was holding saliva in her mouth. Has anyone ever experienced this with their loved one?
Thank you for your all your responses in advance.
(It's worth noting that aspiration pneumonia can sometimes respond to treatment if you choose to pursue it)
