worse

 

*sigh* my mum's condition is getting worse.

as some of you know she has dementia.

1st - she keeps on forgetting where things in the house were

and she still does.

2nd - she can't dress on her own so either my dad or i have to help her change.

but when it comes to shower, my dad helps her.

the first two were normal so i got used to it but now it's gotten much worse and it's starting to scare me.

she's starting to talk to the mirror, thinking that its someone else when it's actually her own reflection.

she gets angry at it (her own reflection in the mirror), she tries to hit it, swear at it or even try to tell

her own reflection to get out of the room.

now she's saying there's a robber in her room when it's actually her own reflection that she's looking at.

i'm not used to looking after someone who has dementia, even though she's my own mother.

i'm actually freaking scared because one time she's all nice to me and then the next she's pissed at me

for no particular reason.
