And sorry...Thank you very much, Mike; appreciated. And sorry to hear you are going through the same.<br /><br />I'll be visiting mum tomorrow - as ever, hoping it will be a "good" visit (i.e. one where nothing upsetting happens). But I never know how I will find her, or how her mood will be from one moment to the next. It is a sad limbo that leaves us so alone with this disease. <br /><br />All the best to you and your mum.

This! Here! What I've become.”
Not jus...“Me! This! Here! What I've become.”<br />Not just forgetting. Not just struggling to find the words to describe what you are trying to communicate. Realising the difficulty people are having understanding you is because of the disease you have.<br />Mum has used that exact phrase and that was the moment in reading your blog that sent a shiver down my spine. That and the horror of the prospect of the possible fate that awaits me.<br />Your blogs and links are a boon to me as much as you and I may think they are depressing to read. They demonstrate the huge variation in effect of dementia. There is always some way of dealing with each new episode that is worth sharing or hearing about.<br />I hope you can find enough resources to continue and especially to enjoy yourself whilst you are doing everything you do for your mum.MikeAtkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14705218630759938002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254078482490768003.post-57398140139516934802014-05-27T15:37:07.800+01:002014-05-27T15:37:07.800+01:00Thank you.

My ...Ouch - that made for some hard reading Ming... My MIL is still in the happy and surprised stage with no insight whatsoever (at least that she let's show), which has to be better for her if not for us....<br /><br />Keep posting - this is one of my new favourite dementia blogs out there. And I love the title - sexy it is not, as MIL's stubbly chin and saggy old lady bras point out to me on a daily basis...<br /><br />DG x<br /><br />www.dementiapoetry.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
