[quote=Anonymous]Even more: Make a list of everything a doctor needs to know to determine level of functioning so the doctor will make the right recommendations for level of care. In OPs case that may mean memory care and skipping in home care. Just paint the WHOLE picture otherwise the doctor may only recommend a little extra help. Also, paint the picture of what this is doing to the caregiver. My mother was determined to appear stoic, and I think a lot of people did not realize how far gone she was. I won't go into detail, but I wish i had made it clear sooner just how miserable and depressed she was and that she was doing little to take care of herself.[/quote]
