It is an evil disease
My mother works in a long-term care facility. I have heard the many horror stories. My cousin and aunt both had Lewy-body dementia. It is not easy for the families, and God only knows what the victim of this disease is truly going through since they really cannot verbalize their many issues.

Re: I hate dementia with a Passion
I know and this will not be as smooth as Richard. He was never combative. She will certainly be argumentative and stuborn and resentful that she is dependend. At least,she will be in assisted living and not in my care.

I hate dementia with a Passion
it took away my Mother many years ago and my Dad nursed her too long and then when she went into a nursing home he died.
And yes, now our Wiley has gone, to a much better place than what he had here and yes I spent 3 months under covid lock down alone through the winter as sick as a dog. My friend Trish would message me she was going shopping and I would give her a list. She would fill it and send message of cost. I put money out she took the money and left the groceries so we only waved through a window. I miss Wiley with a passion and cannotn wait now to get out of the house I have loved so dearly. You understand. it was our house.
