[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so frustrating. My sister did so much work (forms, phone calls, documents) so that my mom who had dementia would have an aide coming to the house every morning. They came this morning for the assessment, my mom acted very normal and refused the help. My mom clearly needs it, she can’t manage her own eating/self care/ etc. she is confused and forgets every little thing, has difficulty walking etc. There’s nothing we can do once my mother refuses. My sister will have a break down when she hears.[/quote] So sorry OP. I reread this post and see you didn’t ask a question! You are just venting. Yes, it’s hard. I’m in a similar situation right now but with my husband. I have to find the care and then he rejects it, or complains bitterly about it. I have started providing much less care when he fires his caregivers in a fit of pique. [/quote]
