The saddest thing for adults to feel that maintenance is emotionally meaningless by a parent. Of course they know that parents, when dementia is reduced ability to handle life safely be maintained.
"My mother did not even know me," I'm sad.
Mom Joke
"Dad does not even know my name."
However, it is very clear to me as a 20-year-old manager of people with dementia, that this great divide is not only read by home visits of the caregiver or care.Dementia takes the feelings. In fact, many people with dementia closer to their feelings when they get their disease ever. But surely dementia attacks a person's ability to communicate clearly.
In addition, attacks the memory of the course. In the short term are extremely fragmented. Days, months, years or decades to be lost, to remember. This is what it means to dementia. Everyone knows enough.
What very few people seem to understand how this breakdownMemory complicates other issues. Almost all older people remember to give life to a very deep level. By this I mean, check them again to check and revise as appropriate, their life story in great detail. This is normal and should actually very spiritually healthy old age.
In fact, it is probably healthy and appropriate at any age, to try to understand our lives, who has done what we need and what we might remake. And 'particularly important for older people because of the proximity of death.The push for peace, resolution and understanding of the latest in a life is the deep work of centuries. It is worth "living in the past." And 'deep research for human life in its deeper level to understand.
Talk to an older person and find this is a universal problem. These people sit and do nothing? You can do something deeper and more spiritual depth than you've ever done. So there!
It 'interesting that people with dementia, too. We knowThis is because, if we listened to them - and in my experience, most people do not listen to people with dementia, although they may be their parents - want to know that we are talking about mom and dad, the house the family back and forth, the stuff of education. In other words, to see the great life.
But here's the great complications that dementia brings. Knowing where the healthy elderly, who simply do not have memories of earlier times Recalling Intensive elderly with dementiathis mandate. What I remember where they live because they have no internal calendar and this time this year.
Effectively this means that elderly patients with dementia is in force in time zones earlier in their hearts, feelings and broken memory. The really interesting thing is that their memory is often extremely accurate. Do you know who lived in that time zone and get the right name. And, if the child is now 60-90 years later,can not include the correct name. How could they? I'm still sixteen.
Therefore, if your mother lives in another time zone, you must provide your name, do not use it or what they tell you to listen.
If they call you Violet - her long-dead sister's name - or jokes about the things you did together, says: "You're family, we are close, I know you."
And you know what? Need to overcome themselves. Because your parents 'dementia'In reality not all about you. So, listen, think, understand and forgive.
You'll feel much better.
