UTI is the go to check-up in caregiving for people with intellectual disabilities who suddenly act up too. I think we all have stories of strange cranky behavior when the people we care for are 7nwell and unable to communicate directly.
Thank you for this. I now have a much better understanding of my mother's perplexing and stress-inducing symptoms.
You are very welcome!
I now look back athis actions and see that the hoarding and rummaging were early signs of the cognitive decline that I did not recognize.
Great info! Thank you 🙏

Thank you so much, I’ve been by looking for training videos that don’t cost me. With the price of care and supplies I could not afford to pay for education. Thank you so much. I would be happy to make a donation as my budget allows. Thank you again.
I'm with you--- there are so many financial costs traveling this road... Keep,pushing 🙏💫

A lot of a person's expressions are carried over from their true personality that's just a fact
my concern is that she is still driving i do not drive myself anymore in case I have a fit and get low calcium so im living in constant pain daily and sunlight is an issue auto immune, driving should have them i haven't had one for over 10 years to scared to drive now happy to getting a taxi if i am stuck i can never understand people driving on medications or whatever not safe for other people im glad she has bad mobility only get in out of her car so will not wonder very far for now kids don't understand what i have to deal with at work i work in dementia every other day physically hit etc screamed at by some of them it is very challenging for people to care for how i will do it i will never know she has an alarm and a flat at the minute i have felt strange negative behavior does not like me at all to busy making fun of me most of the time which hurts more than anyone should have to put up with already. i always thought it was narcissistic behavior seams to fit a lot more now at least it is not in my head
I believe you mean wandering and not wonderiing.
