[quote=Anonymous]My elderly father with dementia lives with us. I work from home and hired a retired lady to come spend time with him during the day. She cooks for all of us, takes him for a walk, they do puzzles and play board games, she listens to his stories (same ones, over and over), and answers his numerous questions. Without such help, I was getting crazy too: he distracted me from work all the time, asking questions, asking for help - to open some box, to adjust the air conditioner, to turn on his favorite TV channel, etc. [/quote]
