Today was tough

♥️ i wish i could think of something positive and helpful to send your way.
But i do sympathise.

I think what you're doing is exactly what I'd do.

My mother in law had dementia. Horrid thing. You watch the soul die before the body.

That’s so sad, I’m so sorry you and your family are going through this. I know the agitated state you described. I experienced it with my dad, and felt completely helpless. Making it even worse, he didn’t recognize me or my sister, which only added to his agitation so we couldn’t even comfort him. The doctors made us leave his room until they could sedate him. It was heartbreaking, and something I’ll never forget.

I have done this rodeo a couple of times, with my mother in law and my own mother. And it seems my wife will go the same route, but thats still a way off hopefully. I wish I had something hopeful to say on the subject, but I dont. What I can say from experience is that shielding those members of your family who really dont need to be exposed to this is a kindness. Let them remember the person your father used to be. Where he is going totally lacks dignity. Do what you can to allow it to live the memories of those who love him...😷

So sorry you and yr family are enduring this.
We experienced similar with my mum, I understand how heartbreaking it can be.
Sending love and strength. X

I'm so sorry ☹️ strength and love for you and your family ❤️

so sorry, is he on hospice care?

My thoughts go out to dad and to the family and to you. 🥺🌺

My thoughts are with you

Bless you all. You will always do the right thing for your loved ones xx
