Put her meds in her drinks ie Lemonade

She scrunches up on her own as you found out. Not everyone needs pilliws as it restricts breathing sometimes. As long as she is healthy that is what matters.dont sweat the small stuff.

I love how you talk to your mom. She's happy. That's all that matters.❤

What a sweet lady ❤❤

This breaks my heart…we often make excuses to not be able to take care of our loved ones ourselves especially with dementia seems her home would be best for everyone especially her…around her family and her husband not stuck there with random visits, junk food and strangers. Sad world we are in. I’m sure she took the time no matter how busy life was in her younger years to take care of her family shame they don’t return the favor.

Praying there will be a cure one day for this terrible disease. So heartbreaking to watch someone you love in such a state. She’s a sweet lady 🙏

Both my parents had Alzheimers. My Mom lived with me for the last ten years of her life, very sad.

Such a sweetie pie, my goodness❤!.Can we take a second look to make sure that we were wrong about the diagnosis and maybe it could be something else very simple?

I know that they are usually short staffed but 😬 Staff are really good at deflecting blame. Also, my experience with my momma in a nursing home is they rely on the patient to get their own water. Even though it is next to your momma, your momma doesn’t process that she needs it. They should come by every so often to make sure she gets a sip. We caught on, too, when my momma was so ripe and stinky because they never bathed her. She smelled like urine. Even her chair was saturated in urine. It had been a month. Their excuse was because my momma turned her bathes down, which is common with dementia patients. We told them that they are to bathe her even if she turns it down because she cannot make decisions for herself. But for them to do that they had to have a doctor do a “test” on her to make sure she was not able to make decisions for herself even though it was apparent she could not. It is the hardest thing to see this. I can assure you they are not helping to feed your momma just by the signs but how can we handle it? So I understand you being stuck! I am so sorry. As dementia patients get older their muscles atrophy. So it makes it harder and harder for your sweet momma to straighten her body out. Soon they become more or less stuck in that position most of the time. Once the staff realize that patients are more bedridden they tend to leave them be to do whatever. Your mommas experience is almost identical to my momma. I can guarantee you they are not checking in her. I can tell from the nurses reaction to your mom, almost a frustrated response, they are not doing their job at all. It is hard. There is absolutely nothing you can do so you feel stuck. I did too. I cried every time I left her. What saved my momma and gave her peace her last days were that we found an actual hospice care center called Angie’s. That was in MI but I think they are in other states. I’ll see what I can find for you. Many hugs for you and your momma and your whole family. I tend to type fast so I hope this made sense! ❤

Report. The. Home😢😢

Take. Her. Home😢😢😢

Aww, this is sweet!

You are giving your lil momma amazing care and love. You meet her where she is and enjoy what time you have left in this journey. Prayers for healing and strength. God bless

Firstly, you're a beautiful lady! I definitely see your mom in your face❤! Secondly, hospice can be wonderful, so im glad to see you move in that direction! I said in another one of your videos that employees at assisted living facilities, nursing homes (especially there) need to have some type of contact therapy training before they start- it would make a difference i believe. And lastly, haters are gonna hate, somewhere social media gave people an invisible "pass" to say whatever they feel without considering the hearts of others. I commend you for being such a wonderful daughter, and you continue to do what YOU feel is best for your mom!!!!❤❤❤❤❤ She is loved, you are there, and that trumps all the hate others can throw your way!!!!

God love her my grandmother had alzheimers and before she passed away just last year she had one of those realistic cats and she loved that thing so much it gave her so much comfort before she got dementia she had five or six cats she just adored them

She is so sweet and cute

God bless this sweet lady 🙏 ❤

Seeing your momma light up like a love struck school girl when she seen your dad made me smile and tear up at the same time. How precious that moment was! I care for my mother with alzheimer's and dementia and as it progresses its become harder and harder emotionally . My daughter's wish I would put her in a home to be cared for. But,the guilt eats me alive . She was terrified to go into a home. I resigned from my job a few years ago to be there for her 24/7. I struggle with depression now because as you know its a roller coaster and I have no life of my own. Which is what lead me to finding you. Seeing experiences she has within the facility and trying to come to terms with what is best for all of us.. so thank you for sharing your experiences .💜🙏🏻

There are so many good dementia training programs and classes available. I'm sure you could benefit from these. You are really good to your mom, use and help. we can all

Gosh this must be hard for you. Mum had a massive stroke just over a year after my dad died. Her brain did amazing things considering they gave her about 6 weeks to live and she did remember things and some days she remembered lots. Her dementia was due to the stroke, she couldn’t move as paralysed down her right side, mostly she was cheerful but had temper tantrums if she didn’t get her own way. Some days she came out with some pretty wild stuff , we just went with it. The hardest things were when she realised that dad was dead, she would be so upset 😢fortunately it didn’t last for long. The other hard thing was that some of her essence was gone & although she was our mum, it didn’t feel like she was…so hard to explain. Mum lived for 4 years longer, well cared for in a lovely home, the staff were terrific. We miss her and dad a lot. You do an amazing job ❤

What a life! I'm nearly 80 & I'd rather be dead than live like that. I have vowed if I am diagnosed with dementia I will take an overdose

Do you never take homemade food?

What a drab place. No colour, no art. Horrid

I would love to see some pictures of when they were younger.

Heartbreaking

What a miserable soulless place. Like a Victorian institution

Take her home

They should put pillows on both sides...

She is hungry becuase she probubaly doesnt eat the nasty center foodmy mom hated it

What a horrible place. Get her out of there

My mom has a real one.❤

My heart hurts for you 😢

Staff didn’t even know you could get her to eat. She seems soo thirsty & hungry when u feed her. She did all this 4 u when u couldn’t for yourself. I don’t understand why u don’t do the same for your mother. She’s told u she wants to go home. 2pillows would be better. Maybe I outta stop watching it pisses me off too bad, feel so sorry 4 her

Some nursing homes allow pets. But who's going to take care of them?

I pray 4 u, but I really think your gonna have both guilt & shame 4 leaving your mother in their. This what’s the matter w/our today’s society, they lack empathy & patience . She should be w/you, she gave you life & you give her this sad. My daughter would never…

We need the Lord to help us to make through the day. In addition we all have a Guardian Angel at our side. God said "ask and you will receive" . Make sure we all start our day with the Lord's help.

The brand is “Joy For All”, and this is the robotic ‘companion cat’. Wonderful for dementia patients.

Youre a good person...my mama was ill like yours..it was tough...but wouldn't change a thing ❤❤❤❤love you 4ever Mama

I hope I never get dementia. As a mother, I don't think I want to keep living if I don't know who my kids and grandchildren are.

Lovely daughter

Hi here nelleke from the netherlands. My father 88 years has also dementie. I see al lot the same things whit youre mother and my dad. Lots of love from here❤

She must have been a good mama for you to care for her with such love and care.

So instead of being there for your mom and helping her you stick her in a nursing home. I told my kids if they ever put me in one of them. I will come and haunt them for the rest of their life. They talk to them like their children. They have taken away her dignity. If that's the daughter supposedly came to visit her mom. She should be ashamed of herself.

❤ Did you say you have leukemia? Poor Momma. ❤

Turn the dang annoying low battery fire alarm beeping off!

They make a caffeine free coke now. That’s what I use as I am not supposed to have caffeine. It taste just like regular coke, they also make a diet version but I don’t drink it.
