[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s an annual trip. She had dementia last year and went (presumably). Was her break from routine traumatic? Everyone is advising not to take her this year as if a switch just flipped and she suddenly will be bereft without her normal routine — sounds self serving to me. Keep taking her on the annual trip until actual experience proves that it’s a mistake. Of course that day will come at some point. [/quote] I’m the PP with the FIL who recently passed of dementia. It sounds like you don’t have much or any experience with dementia. In fact many dementia patients worsen in step functions, not gradually. You really sound ignorant here. [/quote]
