Any ideas on what to say to her? She has had dementia for about four years and it's getting much worse (she can't remember eating or to wear a coat outside etc) She is driving them crazy and constantly asks to go back to her apartment which is being dismantled and is no longer available. The son told her there are no flights back to NY but the rest of the family triest to convince her that she can't fly alone without a medical waiver which she simply ignores. I told them to make up something else. Any suggestions? She packs her suitcase and sends pleading mail to me and others.
Thanks, Judy

Let the family deal with it and don’t interfere. This is a very difficult and trying time for them. Don’t make it more difficult. Support her family. Under no circumstances make any plans with her to come back here, even ‘fake” ones.
thank you so much, JSL
