Do others of you just constantly have that nervousness in the pit of your stomach? I just got off the telephone with my 89-year-old brother who does have dementia - many health issues in the past, but overall doing quite well. We talk and see each other often, we are only 20 minutes apart in the same town. However, her conversations are disjointed and as it goes, her cognition is going downhill more so these past few months. she is still in a “independent living room however if I did not do her medicine, help her with appointments and other things she will certainly be considered assisted-living. I don’t even want to consider memory care down the road! The point being, anytime there is change with her. I get so worried - like my phone call with her this morning regarding her being so tired and bathroom issues as of this past week …anyway, as we say, I just keep trying to say the serenity prayer.
I really am not a downer type of person so excuse if these last posts I’ve seemed that way. I wish all a good day.!
