My sister lives 8 hours from me and is in a rather fluid period of decline. She has 24hr care as we navigate a new living situation. I have a ring camera that allows me to see her in her living room. I’m wondering if I should bother calling her when I see she is disengaged ( just sitting and staring) I have had one incident on the phone when she got very angry with me and I fear I might trigger her.
