[quote=Anonymous][quote] I am so sorry. Are there things she can still enjoy, like listening to familiar music?[/quote] I have brought in a lot more cds that she likes and am basically playing music and holding her hand. In the past few days her ability to speak and swallow have gone downhill significantly. When people talk about a post-fall decline, i get it now. I mean, her dementia was pretty bad before the fall but physically she had no major health problems. Walked a ton, able to get in/out of chairs and bed fairly easily, and generally no big health problems. Now it seems she may not last through this year. I will say that she is not in pain and seems peaceful most of the time. I'm kind of a mess, and I thought I would have been more prepared, having been dealing with her dementia/decline for several years. [/quote]
