[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the love of god do not let that woman drive. She'll kill someone. I worked with dementia patients as a CNA when I was very young and considering a nursing career. It's HARD, but you have to rip the bandaid off and get her the help she needs before she starts a fire and burns the house down, or wanders off in the middle of the night. The people who are telling you to leave for a few weeks (!!! OMG !!!) have never been around a person with dementia. You simply don't leave them, let alone for weeks at a time. You need to get her to a safe place, and home alone isn't it. Yes she'll be mad. Yes she'll scream and lash out. Yes you'll feel like a jerk. No that doesn't mean you're doing the wrong thing. Do it.[/quote] I respect your opinion, thank you. I will see what I can do.[/quote]
