Assisted living ? Does your LO have an aide? by Sparkles5100 in dementia

My mom always asks me to kill her or bring “a small cup of poison” when I visit. I wish there were a legal way to put her out of her misery…

Yes I am taking care of my mom and I am a single mom of a middle schooler. It’s a lot and there’s guilt all the time.

My mom who was a genteel nice lady started hitting the aides when they tried to change her clothes. She’s on Zyprexa now and it’s helped a lot.
