My DW is in her Depends 24/7. She soils them with urine more than going to the toilet. If the Depends are full she resists me trying to change her. It's very frustrating. Has anyone else experienced this? On some days, she's fine with me changing her. On other days it's complete resistance. Sorry to be gross about this.…
My mother has recently been diagnosed with moderate level alzheimers. I have been able to distance myself as she has spiraled the last few years. Now, thanks to a tree falling on her house, I have been put in the middle of caring for her. She does not realize she cannot and was not caring for herself and continually…

I think I found a benefit, (ok, I'm being obnoxious). My husband has a daughter that has been incarcerated for longer than I can tell you. She hasn't seen her father in a year and a half. She's always been a moocher and her father has given in spending tons of money on her, rehabs, housing, etcand her continuing to be a…
Although given preliminary FDA approval in July, has anyone had experience getting insurance coverage for weekly home injections instead of infusions every two weeks?
Morning. Happy September! Dove season begins today and some big, brave men are out shooting little.birds. Noisy here with all the shooting east of us. No hunting on our place. Can't understand why Mike is allowing it because of his cattle. Maybe it's South of me - with my hearing deficit it's hard to tell directions. Sorry…
I’m mom’s caregiver. Dad died in June and he was her caregiver until he got sick in Feb. Mom had one grief counseling session and wants more. The hospice facility dad was with offers 3 free sessions. I want mom to have more. They don’t do private pay. We have another session coming up in a couple of weeks, but Mom is in…
Hi Folks. It's been a while. Life, as I'm sure you know is very different for me now. I sincerely hope that some of you have had your lives get a little easier, although I know that's not typically the case. Just wanted to update you on how things have gone for me since I don't have boots on the grouch anymore. Like I…
I hope you all will cross your fingers for me (and keep us in your prayers for a good outcome tonight and this week). Of the many challenges we all have with our LO's and dementia among the most impactful to me over time has been trying to get enough sleep at night. My LO is now completely urinary incontinent and she wakes…
I've read the books, participated in clinical trials and focus groups, I'm talking with therapists, journalled and done everything I can think of, and this bottomless pit of a disease is truly swallowing me up whole. Thankfully, my spouse is not uncomfortable, and is not an anxious individual, and does not seem to…
