[quote=Anonymous]My mother (88 yr old) was just diagnosed with diabetes. She suffers from Alzheimer’s and is about stage 6. She can still walk on her own (barely), needs help with toileting, clothes and bathing. Her speech is clear, usually, but makes up words, and cannot follow conversations or answer questions coherently. Have any of you had a loved one in a similar situation? How much diabetes care did you do for your loved one? My mother’s advanced directive is DNR, and no unnecessary life prolonging procedures. She lives with me, but I was planning on placing her in memory care within the next 6 months. [/quote]
