Very close friends had to put their Mum into permenant care. I had met the lady and she was indeed a real LADY but she was found by the police on one occasion having taken of her blouse and holding 6 fresh eggs. After that there was no question as to where she needed to be. If it weren't so serious it would be funny and I guess sometimes it may help to see the funny side of things. She was oblivious of here prediciment so caused her no self incrimination. Anothr friend in her mid 50's has a husband with the disease. I also used to play cards with a gentleman at our local club who used to tell us about his wife who he had to care for with it. He stopped coming to cards for a few months and then one day a carer asked if we would mind if a gentleman came and tried to learn and lo and behold it was our friend who himself had been struck with the condition. WE had noticed he had become a bit forgetful but had no idea that he was soon to become a victim too. I think the best thing to remember is that they have no idea of their state and are probably quite happy in their OWN LITTLE WORLD.Marcellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17452700583387232923noreply@blogger.com
