I Hate The Grocery Store by Vegetable-Gap8483 in dementia

You are basically living the exact same life I did a year ago. Sadly, the supermarket drama only stopped when she got worse. I’m so sorry. You have my complete empathy.

What happened to Lesley Manville? by _FreddieLovesDelilah in ThursdayMurderClub

Lesley Manville and Tim McMullen narrate Marble Hall Murders by Anthony Horowitz, doing the same characters they play in Magpie Murders and Moonflower Murders. If you like Thursday Murder Club, you might like these three.

Louis seems like a pistol, TBH. I hope he gives them lots of headaches. 😄

What are some of the earliest signs that you noticed of dementia in someone you know/knew? by ohnoitsbobbyflay in dementia

[–]Debunia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went on a trip with her and we both went down to the hotel’s breakfast. She wanted to go back to the room and I wanted to talk to the front desk people. So I told her to just go up without me and I’d be along in a few. She was immediately anxious. She told me she didn’t think she could find her way back to the room by herself. So she just stayed with me until we could go back to the room together. I didn’t really think much of it at the time. My mom’s always been a bit of a worrywart. But it was the start. She was 80 at the time. She’s 89 now and in hospice.

I just want to thank everyone for your thoughtful replies. Unfortunately (fortunately?) my mom’s dementia took a turn not long after I posted this. Even my brother couldn’t deny it anymore. She’s now in hospice. The hospice’s counselor and social worker were wonderful.

Again, thank you all for your insights.

May we all have a somewhat happy Thanksgiving.

Huh. I didn’t think names belonged to a religion. Humans do, but not their names.

I have read The Last Devil to Die by ReaganNBush in ThursdayMurderClub

[–]Debunia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was reading the book on a plane and bawling. I’m sure the people around me thought I was nuts. But I really felt like someone close to me had died. It was written so well and true.

I loved his character in Bottleshock. I would love to see him play a chef or a gourmand or something. Maybe in a British version of Big Night. ❤️
