Thank you for the video. My mom has Alzheimer’s dementia and has begun fabricating/misremembering events that she believes happened in the past. Is this normal or common?
Hi, I know this might not be the best place to ask questions but I need some advice. My mother is constantly accusing me of stealing or hiding things from her, some are things we don't actually own. I tried to reason with her but that just made her angrier. Our relationship is really strained right now because of this. Should I just buy whatever she accuses me of? I am really not sure if I should do this because there might be things that I just can't buy anymore. What should I do?
Thank you for reaching out. Lucy has covered these behaviors before. You can find her recordings at our website: www.caregiverteleconnection.org under the Health & Wellness section. One of the suggestions that Lucy has given is to re-direct during those situations.
