I have looked after my mum with Alzheimer’s For 5 years. Last year was quite intensive and proved too much for me . So we now have live in care for last year. But money is running out. I have social services on board waiting for financial appointment next week . I’ve been to Look at homes. But come away depressed. I think they would frighten mum. She almost acts like a little girl again. She a retired nursing sister. . She may have to move in with us which will prove very difficult as she cannot be left. It overwhelms me at times. She very happy most of time but has anxiety and asked why her mum not been to visit. And has started to say (at her house.) Believing she somewhere else she constantly looking for things. And doesn’t relax much or sleepduring day. And stays awake till 10 pm She loves washing up. She still knows who I am Most of the time but not my children or grandchildren. There is help and support out there I just had to accept it. It really does help reading other people’s stories to know your not alone .
