[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom got nicer when she had dementia -- she could still be stubborn and there is no way I could have taken care of her, but overall she got sweeter and less judgmental. She keeps saying how proud she is of me and my sibling, which is something she never ever said when she was healthy because her standards were so high (she had a cousin who won a Nobel price so that was the standard against which we were all judged when she was healthy).[/quote] OP here. This does give me hope. My mom is chronically dissatisfied and has unattainable standards. It would be nice if she could appreciate us even briefly. The only thing that takes away some of that hope is I think everyone in her family became abusive with decline.[/quote]
