I'm my father's primary caregiver. He is 87yrs old and is approaching the last stages of Alzheimer's. It's very sad to see how this once proud independent man has been reduced to just a "shell" of a man. He's more aggressive now and the tough decision of placing him in a home capable of addressing his growing needs must now be made. My heart says "Keep him home" but my mind knows it's time to let him go to a place where he will be in a safe environment. Alzheimer's is a HORRIBLE disease!

@WenKai2 I worked previously as a caregiver for Alzheimer and Dementia patients. They may not remember you in person, but many residents I took care of had sudden urges to see people they loved, and would wander the halls all night looking for them. Their brain may be suffering, but in their heart they remember you

As part of an arts funded UK project artists have spent 10 years (9000 hrs) talking to real people with dementia and compiling their memories into 'in their own words' stories. The results are extraordinary and unexpected. Please check our website trebusprojects. org and the Facebook page ''The Trebus Project Ltd".
My mother has Alzheimers, and is at a point in her life where she is virtually in her own little world. And it is getting harder and harder to get through to her. Most of the time she can't even communicate and you can understand her, just a jumble of words. It has been like hell on my dad, she doesn't even know who he is. And we recently had to move her in with my sister so she can get around the clock care by my sister and my moms nurse. Its a tough road, we have to remember the good times :)

my grandmother has been sick for a year and today I went to visit her and she ask me who I was. I know she didn't mean to say that but It broke my heart. My grandmother is like my second mother.
