My mom is sick

I guess she has something called Frontotemporal dementia. It's basically sudden onset Alzheimer's.

Yesterday she didn't even realize who I was



Oh god.

Jesus man. I’m sorry.

Just remember who she was not what she’s become.

My Mom died of Alzheimer's. It's not a very pleasant way to go out. Just try to remember her when she was her, not the one now that can't remember who you are.

Don't freak out around her when she forgets something like who you are, it just makes her more scared of whats happening in her moments of lucidity. All you can do is just be loving. She might not know you but she understands that she knows you or loves you but doesn't understand how or why.

Look into her eyes for those moments of recognition.

Oh god.
Damn. That's simply awful.

As long as you realize who she is, you can continue to honor her. There's still enormous dignity in that.

I'm sorry, man.

Wow. That's rough. Prayers sent your way Jake. My advice take each day as it's own and don't try to look down of what might be to come. Enjoy each day you have with her as a blessing and remember the person she was not what the disease makes her become.

Prayers sent man, that's really rough. My grandma had Alzheimers and one thing my dad always did was a lot of activities to keep his mind engaged to try and make sure he wouldn't go down that road. He went a few years back and never had to go down that road thankfully. It's rough especially if you have kids, etc. that didn't get to know her when she was herself. I'll just mirror what others have said, remember who she was, talk to her like she knows you and don't get upset at the things she doesn't remember.

same - my mom had dementia - she is gone now.....it is really really tough. There are times you question why you go to visit her when she does not know who you are - you may not actually admit that to anyone - but you feel it. And that can be a tough bit of guilt to deal with....

Im really sorry man....

I have a loved one going through this...its extremely hard......

A couple pieces of advice that I have learned the hard way...if they say something like 'we are going to X , y or z' and it isnt true -- dont argue...just agree with them....I have a loved one who constantly thinks they are supposed to be going somewhere and I tried for a long time to explain and tell them that we werent and it felt weird to 'lie' and agree...but it was a big anxiety relief for them when i just started agreeing with their delusions.....instead of trying to fight them

and,try not to take it personally....its really tough

sign up for whatever services you can ...IHHS...etc....any type of support you can get because you might need it.

big hugs dude
