THANKS for watching! I hope this helps! Leave me a comment if you have ANY questions!
I am understanding so much more about these things I’ve been seeing mom do , for years now. If I had understood this before, for a couple years now I could have been giving her a better life. Not just sundowning of course but all of these videos, you have helped so much. Thank you.
Come join the group in Facebook! It helps even more!! Link in description!!!! All my love!
Thank you , I'm a hospice nurse but sometimes we get some patients in the early stages and these tips are really helpful.
I’m so glad!!!
My father is struggling bad with sundowner stage of the day. My mother is in denial. I try hard to make it easier but same time every night approx at 1 he is up rummaging through the house. I appreciate being able to watch your helpful videos. I wish I knew how fast it progresses.
My husband is also doing this about the same time every night at 1:00 a.m. and of course I wake up as he just goes around the house rummaging through like your Dad does, then he will usually go back to bed at about 5 or 6 a.m. and sleep a couple hours. I didn't know what this was called until I saw this video tonight.
Well said 😘thank you
My husband insists on going to bed at 7 and getting up at 1 a.m. I cannot convince him of the difference btwn day and night.
I thought the paniel gland is responsible for your third eye and Astral projecting.. lol kidding
But seriously, I take melatonin daily, is that bad for the gland and or cause sundowing later in life?
It’s for that, too! Lol! Melatonin is naturally occurring and doesn’t seem to be a cause of Sundowning later in life!
