M1- How are you?

Hi abc-the visit went fine, I’m tired today but was happy to make it happen.
It’s been pretty quiet, I’m just trying to recoup and figure out next steps. I tried to go to bed early last night, but three times she woke me up asking whether everyone had been fed and “who is this white dog?” (He’s the only one). I think most of it is a sundowning phenomenon of sorts, but that doesn’t make it any easier. I’m going to call her doc tomorrow about possibly increasing her Seroquel dose.
Thanks for asking!!

Thank you for touching base with me/us! I'm thankful the visit was a good one. Maybe an increase in her meds will do the trick, I certainly hope so! I hope you get a good nights sleep too.
My mom's dog has moved in under her hospital bed. He only comes out to potty now. Dad has started to feed him under the bed. He won't leave mom. She doesn't know he's there. I don't know what to think of it. It's incredibly sad.
