[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you or your sister need to take charge of this situation somehow. It doesn’t sound safe for your mom to live by herself and have memory issues, forgetting to eat and not sleeping. It’s only going to get worse.[/quote] This. My mother's health is declining one of the first things was she stopped eating when she was by herself. We could meals of wheels deliver, neighbors check in but the food would go untouched and she said she "wasn't hungry". If someone is there and sits with her she will eat. Same with her meds. It doesn't matter if they are in a pill organizer, she is not reliable in taking them. Sleep is the other issue - she sleep a lot during the day (bad health and her meds), at night she is up hourly. Many different approaches to try to get her on a regular schedule it just doesn't seem to work. [/quote]
