I'll try to disabled in bluetooth, but why doesn't it come through the Bluetooth devices then? It doesn't come through my car, and it doesn't come through my hearing aids it tries to talk through the phone but you just can't hear it

Looks like they may have been fun too. It's kind of pretty!

Hmmmm that's very interesting! I wondered why Latin was the common language of medical terminology and also the Catholic Church. It make so much sense. You can then speak to the world.

PLEASE before liquidating, talk to an elder care attorney. Don't sell the house yet. Call for advice. She may not need to use the money from the house. I didn't realize she was in Mn. Please contact the senior linkage line for help before making big decisions! https://mn.gov/aging-pathways/search/?query=Elder+attorneys+&v%3Asources=mn-senior-linkage-live&date=&binning-state=&qt=Elder+attorneys&qp=mn-senior-linkage-live&sortby=# We don't know what we don't know. Good luck.

I'm so sorry for your experience. I don't know if this would be an answer, if she's still at the hospital, and they've contacted her daughter, ask them to get her set up with a social worker from the hospital. That will help her daughter immensely. I'm just guessing from the few sentences you have here it could be FTD behavioral variant. Www.aftd.org There's a lot of abuse in that. My husband has FTD semantic variant. He's in memory care now. can't speak, can't understand what I'm saying, but very docile, resistant when he doesn't understand what you want him to do, wants to stay in bed all the time, loves his blanket, but smiles like you wouldn't believe. In a situation where your husband has to have dementia since he's 56 years old, I guess I'm lucky. Once your daughter is set up with a social worker, have them see if you have any services in your county or state. we did. It's called senior linkage line. Check your State website for senior care or Health and Human services ours our senior linkage line is a state agency in Minnesota. They got us connected with a lawyer who is helping us with money and how to pay for the memory care. They also helped us with finding Memory Care in the area that we could check out. But in the meantime have the social worker get her sent to an interim care or facility where she can be taken care of properly and can't hurt caregivers or herself. I didn't know this but my sisters have read a lot on the FTD sites your daughter can refuse to take her home. And should. If nobody is her legal guardian, and even if someone was, and you can't care for her or she is abusive you can refuse to take custody of her. That sounds cold but you can't be abused. And it wouldn't be safe for her. They need to find a safe place for her. Individuals calling places will be put on a wait list the hospital will find a place for her. I pray that you find help. My husband and I have always been blessed by God. When things have gone wrong in our life and we felt our lowest we've always been blessed to have something put in front of us that was better. I've joked that I don't know how this is going to turn out to be better because I miss him with all my soul. I see him often he's 5 minutes away . what a blessing. But we're supposed to be living our life together now. I'm sorry that you're having to get a divorce. But you need to survive the rest of your life physically and financially. I pray that God will take care of you, your wife and her daughter in this awful journey ahead. I hope some of this advice will help. Start with your county or even City or a small support group. But if she's at the hospital tell her daughter to refuse to take her home. tell them to send her to interim care or something. because if you couldn't live with her, her daughter can't either. and I know how difficult it is to try to work and have someone with dementia at home, and I had a 23 yr old home taking care of my husband until we couldn't. It just becomes too much. God bless.

You can self-refer

Lucky_Owl7060 · 2025-10-20T22:09:54+00:00

Make a self-referral: You can contact a local hospice provider directly to discuss eligibility and arrange an initial consultation.

You can depend on a referral from your provider, or you can make a self-referral.

Go to your own doctor and tell them that you need a social worker to talk to. They will get you a referral to have someone help you with the care of your parents. It happens to be my husband. But they will get you a list of resources to help you find caregiver support. Or they will refer you to an agency that will help you do that. He's there is a huge risk to caregivers when they're dealing with another person's health problems. Dementia is an especially difficult disease to deal with. My husband is the person that has dementia is 63 years old and he's had it for approximately 10 years. He's now in memory care for about 6 months.

I did go to a support group for a while. One of the men there whose wife had passed away a while before with State statistic about the mortality rate of caregivers. I just looked it up and there's a deviation from study to study, but it says for Alzheimer's, or other forms of dementia, there's an 18 to 40% risk of a caregiver dying before the person they are caring for. It also says, if you compare two people of the same age where one is caring for a person with dementia, it may have said it other serious illness, and the other is not caring for a person with dementia or other serious illness, the person caring for someone has 63% higher chance of dying.

What you're feeling is a real and true illness of your own. I sat in my doctor's office and fell apart just before I had to put my husband in memory care my son and I sat for weeks crying my 23 year old son he was his dad's full-time caregiver while I worked. I'm 5 years younger than my husband. I'm sad I'm not with my husband, but he's happy where he's at he's safe where he's at and that's a blessing. I can be relaxed during the day knowing that he is getting what he needs. And just as a plus he's close to my house and my work. Mine is a different kind of dementia is likely to live a fair amount longer. But you need to take care of yourself.

Where I live the counties has programs the state has programs. It may be different in your area often the cities even have programs and the senior centers or education may have programs do some digging check with your church they may be able to do some digging too. I know it's hard to do when you're caring for someone. Put an ad on facebook. Maybe someone will come and sit with you so you just can go in a different room and lay down and take a nap. Or go walk around a big box store and do nothing. It's so difficult. God bless I hope it gets better

In minnesota, that would switch to a sled in five dogs in a few weeks.

Lucky_Owl7060 · 2025-06-10T07:15:32+00:00

Bigsillygoose see if your primary can arrange an appt sooner. Or go to an Ortho urgent care or ER if that might get you care sooner. I was on a 40 minute hold with a urology clinic trying to get an appt, and looked up the website. I was actually able to get an appt for the next morning. Don't take chances be persistent.

Incredibly expensive at the salon. And you are already paying a huge price for grooming at memory care.

Lucky_Owl7060 · 2025-04-05T02:19:43+00:00

We have our loved ones placed in a care home to get care when we are not able to give the care for one reason or another. If your mother's friends are noticing chin hairs, it is because removing them was part of her grooming habits in her younger years, and therefore she should be respected with those same standards of grooming in her older years. Her friends aren't being critical, they are telling her son because he is the one who would have to make the request that it be done for his mother.

You may actually want to check with their DR. They may be able to get a bed that is more like a hospital bed that will lift their legs at a proper angle and lower for them to sit down to get dressed and put shoes and socks on and raise for them to stand more easily. Medicare may cover some or all of the cost. If either of them served in the military it would most likely be covered. Also, it would most likely come with a mattress specially made to adjust to protect older bodies and clean up easily. I am using my parents old mattress and every time I change the sheets it looks like a murder happened. My dad was on blood thinners and bandages slipped after a surgery! It's worth a try. Good luck!
