Care for elderly mother with some scary habits? |
She lived alone before we moved her in last year. She is not senile just a little confused every now and then. obviously, you can't change her mind set. Try to change your perception of the situation. She's lived her life and now, it's nearing the end. She changed your diapers, sat up all night with you when you were sick, held you when your heart was broken and now, she's returning to a child-like state. She's terrified. The nearness might be the result of thinking you can save her from this. I'm sure she's aware that she's losing all the freedom she had when she was an independent adult. Have you tried talking to her about it? I know she's getting senile, but if she's got enough faculty left you might try asking her. maybe she'll mentally unwell... you shud explain all these problems to a psychatrist instead of writing them here.. im sure a session wid the psychatrist will tell you why she acts so strange and may help to help you and her both!! Check into home services for the elderly. She does seem to have a fear of being by herself. If her mind is beginning to slip, you are someone familiar and that gives her a sense of security. Try out a home service with a few different caseworkers. Treat the person like a friend and see if your mother responds to any of them in a positive manner. If that works, you can get a day or so to yourself while the caseworker is with your Mom. Quoting>>obviously, you can't change her mind set. Try to change your perception of the situation.
