[quote=Anonymous]My mom is in great physical shape but starting to have some issues with memory loss. It mostly presents in her asking the same questions multiple times during a conversation. My mom has always been a negative person and I believe she has suffered from depression for many years. She has always been adamantly opposed to therapy or medication. This problem has gotten so much worse over the past year as all she talks about in any conversation is the weather, how bored she is and how she is living too long. I try to active listen on my best days or at least remain quiet. I attempt to steer the conversation to something she might find interesting but she really has no interests now. Just waiting to die. Is there anything I can do on these conversation that would be better?[/quote]
