There’s a an older lady I just sold my boat too, and living in a marina. She’s been a nightmare ever since I sold her the boat and the more I see/talk to her the more obvious her dementia is. She appears to be quite a well way into it. She’s quite an angry and depressed person, forgetful, struggles to complete sentences, gets confused and her walking gait is awkward, she struggles to walk and talk at the same time. She has already irritated other people at the marina as she’s very rude and confrontational over tiny things. And she will not stop texting me long texts complaining about anything and everything then apologising and asking me to come help her do things. I don’t know what to do, she has older sisters somewhere but no kids from what I can tell. She’s already damaged the beautiful boat I sold her, and it’s heartbreaking that she’s seemingly alone deteriorating on a boat she clearly can’t manage. The marina office lady is also concerned. I don’t want to offend people here, but I genuinely believe Dementia is demon possession. Even has Demon/demen in the name. It’s something dark and i think I will pray for this old ladies soul to be cleansed. Don’t know what else I can do.

My sister went through this process. Each time I visited her in the nursing home, she had slipped away a little more. When she finally passed away, I was unable to grieve. I realized I had been going through the stages of grief throughout her illness, and, by the time of her death, I had already reached acceptance.❤

Im amazed at how folk on the tube and net can delineate the characteristics of end stage dementia, yet not one - not one - doctor or nurse can help family by advising which stage the patient is in. Even a psychologist and psychiatrist were resistant on making any type of judgement. Sad. Especially with cracker jack certified medical staff in nursing homes. The patient and their caregiver family deserve more than a shoulder shrug.

My mom was offered hospice after a fall that left her unable to safely get up and do anything. She lost all interest in eating and 3 months later she died. I was just so glad to get the chance to say goodbye and do one last Christmas tradition we always did when I was younger. She didn't recognize me a lot but strangely always remembered my daughter, her granddaughter. After she died I learned that at least two generations past without the grandparents died without meeting granddaughters. I broke the trend. I was just so glad she remembered her every time we went to visit.

I’m also going through this with my father. My mom & dad were in home hospice from August 2023 through January 2024, but my mom fell again, she has been falling and being hospitalized since June 1st 2013, though she fell hard in May 2012, but she wasn’t hospitalized until 2013, she nearly died in 2013, her team of specialists told us on June 20, 2013, she had very little chance of living. In January, 3 of my sisters and my brother were visiting my parents and mom fell off her walker and cracked her femur, my parents both had to be put in a 24 hour Hospice Home, because none of me and my siblings live in Southern California, we live all over the USA, I went down with my husband 1st of February, my mom and I had such a special relationship, I was the first born, honeymoon baby, the eldest daughter, my mom begged me to stay with her and be with her till the end. My dad has had dementia since 2011 & he’s deaf, so it’s been so hard, my husband caught Covid mid February and we returned home and got well so we could go back asap, because I knew my mom was dying for real this time. It was just me and my husband,my siblings all went home. On March 16th, as soon as I walked in to their room I knew my mom had started her transition, I have watched so many Nurse Julie Hospice videos,including the trigger warning ones on active dying, so I knew what it looked like. My mom had managed to tell me over and over on March 15th “You are so beautiful, I love you, I love you, I love you. My dad became very lucid on March 17th, he knew she was dying and he cried on my shoulders for 45 minutes before the nurse came, to corroborate her transition, the night before, the head of their hospice came and he told me he had been trying to talk to my brother, I called my brother that Saturday night and let Rumel tell him that mom was dying right now and forget his flight on Wednesday, I also texted my sister, they drove from Utah and arrived on Sunday night. My mom passed away on Tuesday night at 7:03pm, March 19th, I was checking mom’s shallow breathing and comforting my dad, my siblings had gone to the airport to bring my brother in law, mom was waiting from 4 till they arrived, then she let go, I promised her over and over, that we would make sure dad was taken care of. Mom’s funeral was the most beautiful funeral I have ever been to. I had to leave to go home, but I am going back in a few weeks to visit dad and try to determine how he’s doing. He is having trouble swallowing food, that started on March 17th, my niece was feeding him stew, but the pieces were to big and he kept choking, I showed Kara to cut the pieces up, like for a baby. My dad is now refusing food and he doesn’t want to drink, he has asphsia, he lost the ability to stand and walk in early February, and now he has lost his talking, he did manage to say “I miss her” on Monday. My mom and I had plans to celebrate our birthdays together but we can’t, so I am going to take flowers to her grave and talk to her for my birthday, I just hope my dad is okay, I hope I make it back down there. My brother cleaned their hoarder house and 1/2 acre property, he’s been working on it since 2018, but we called in all the help we could get & the house funded yesterday, my brother needs that money to pay for my dad’s care. This is soooo hard. I miss my mama so much and I’m losing my beloved dad too, he deserves to be with my mom, they have been together since she was 18& he was 19, this year would have been their 70th Anniversary in August, my heart is broken 💔

Mom mom wrote in her journal what I think answer yuor question; "I have pinpointed my own memory loss. Please don't assume I can't understand. Include me. Of course, in time, I will lose all." And if a person lives long enough with memory disease, yes, they will lose the ability to think about anything. They will not even remember to eat or drink.

Lines are kind of blurred between Early and Late stages of Dementia. Gramps for the last 6? years has had early stages but also some late stage symptoms, he's 93 now. Still has speech, could not for the last 7 years pay bills correctly, delusions, hallucinations, memory loss, that grew or remained stagnant for years as well as many of the larger problems from dementia. He remained this way for a good 6~7 years I taken care of him. Almost overnight he dropped most of his vocabulary, complete personality change, aggressive, depressed, doesn't eat, and many other problems around personality. A wild experience, couldn't really spend more than 30 minutes without finding him trying to pack up and saying he has lost his home and everything (when he owns the deed and has nothing to worry about). No amount of trying to show him he's safe worked, it's just a constant battle with him to remain and it seems the only option is to lock him down despite him being able to walk and carry himself through the day. I'm 38 and my hair started to turn grey from constantly battling him over a year. We were doing fine then one day it all went away.

I saw this first hand with my father and if I had to do it again I could kick myself in the ass for saying yes okay bring hospice in and let them start him on morphine he was on in fentanyl patch due to spinal stenosis so me as an a****** just thought they were using morphine because it was a stronger pain killer it wasn't just stronger pain killer they used to morphine to slowly dignify his body and cause him to slowly pass away little by little inch by inch day by day by increasing the dose of his methadone me as stupid as I was so they will increase because of pain let's have it awake state so he could finally stop eating peeing having fecal problems and just lay there going to comatose state and pass away and guess what it worked because I caught on to the when the woman came to me the first day of my house instead you could actually going to watch your father pass away now why would somebody say that if they didn't have a game plan all set for my father when he came home from the rehab he was walking around he was eating he was had an attitude happy one would get up or talk to me and we'd have fun together yes she was in bed alone and he was bad winning but I was able to get him in a wheelchair take him into the family room bring him into the kitchen to eat and then hospice comes in and all the slowly dissipates with a just about gave him an egg for breakfast and all of a sudden when I saw all the food in the refrigerator the answer to me was oh he stopped eating how come when I paw

I just read your comment and I totally disagree with what you say working for hospice hospice to me is the biggest rip off I had it for my father and was taken in by the rules and regulations all hospice to me is a way to kill somebody faster if I had known that my father was going to be put on message to be put on morphine is eating not get him up out of bed to his dad and I found that very appalling and degrading I was told that they switched extensional patch to morphine because it's pain has gotten worse he's pain hadn't gotten worse he was living too long on methadone to on more hospice so he had to go they increased his benzodiazepine which is a wrong thing to do with someone is living with dementia because it makes him more confused more eligible for false infractions and more cases to be hospitalized equals sooner death I wish I was more a hearable to what hospice actually does to patients it actually allows them to die at a fast rate when my mother came time to have hospice I put my foot down I had many in arguments with a detox because they stressed methadone and I forbid any methadone to be injected into my mother till the day she died I forbid any house on I forbid and he mental drugs such as Adam and Xanax Clinton you name it I objected it I was not going to have my mother be a guinea pig or because I heard they had no still the doctor this patient has to go she's been living too long and taking up too much money she was over 6 months and getting stable on dementia and all of a sudden they won because somehow she was ended up in the hospital and she never regained consciousness and never came home because they put it on method don't behind my back and I wish that I know this I would have sued the hell out of vitas out of Middlebury Connecticut they are the worst hospice to ever ever send a patient too if you want to kill a loved one send them to hospital I have no sympathy for the nurses I don't care how much they have to work how much they overloaded they did this to themselves their object is to let the patient die and take the tea in the most fashionable fastest manner possible no matter what it takes at what cost with what prescriptions I had my mother switch to oxycontin no match mentally and she lives over 8 months on hospice care perfectly and died of natural causes why because I put my foot down it was on top of everything they did when they send my mother couldn't eat anymore I forced my mother to eat she had no exacerbation going too long she had no liver loving infections she had no food going down the wrong pipe because I took my time with her and I went the extra mile to make sure she has the longest life possible I don't just stop feeding my mother because she couldn't swallow that's not the way somebody who loves their mother treats their parents remember the saying a mother racist six children and never complains but when one child raises one mother they complain so my change everybody out there who was thinking of putting your parents in vitas
