DAY IN THE LIFE | aggressive day with Nan’s dementia, autumn morning routine, skincare

Hey everyone!
Welcome back to another video… today has been a very hard hitting day for us on this dementia journey.
These days make it so difficult to keep strong, and be present in the moment… as the high emotions take over.
As always, I just wanted to highlight that I am no medical expert… and the advice I share is all from our experience on this journey.
Thank you!

Jess, for someone so young, you are years above your time. You're a teacher, an example and a mentor to us all. The way you meet her where ever she is, is so beautiful, no matter how difficult and hard some of the words come across. When she says I love you in response to you, she really means she loves you. Stay strong Angel, we love you too ❤

[@gailchypyha3587]

@@bronnylowke409 I agree! You can see how strong she is and the close bond she shares.

[@MoxyDave]

You're an angel for caring for her and showing the world what it's like. I cared for my elderly parents for years. Dad had dementia and caring for him was very hard. Some days it can feel like you're alone doing the hardest thing on Earth. Now that it's over for me, I look back and I would do it again in an instant. Despite the hardships, the depression and sadness, it was a blessing to be there for them as they were for me when I was young. Good job.

[@frankharrington8528]

No regrets

[@memmar1]

I'm an elder healthcare nurse. Sad to say, she keeps switching through different people who isn't Jessica. She's in a fight and flight inside her mind. Her heart is golden. But her mind wonders off. I've taken care of elderly people for 36 years. I'm retired now. I used to take so much abuse from very old people who have lost their minds. They have hit me, slapped me, spit on me. And verbally attacked me. I would always respond in love. Never in anger.

[@debyates4543]

❤❤That's so kind❤❤

[@JackieGardiner]

That was nice of you

[@Polyp1-3]

Bless you 🙏🏻🥰

[@lesliewessell5340]

Me too it’s bad when they get like that. It’s so so sad. I feel for Jessica.

[@lesliewessell5340]

You’re right honey bless your heart. I’m here if you need to talk.

[@novaspencley431]

I’m also a nurse and had a mom with Alzheimer’s. Bless you for your sweetness toward your grandmother. It’s really difficult on family….. thank you for sharing …. It does help others to see and maybe understand a little more. You’re gentle and sweet… you have a way to redirect her and maybe make her day a little better!!

[@sheilarademan5999]

I love these clips - thank you so much for filming them! My mum had dementia for the Last two years of her life - she died at 99 in 2023 - was bedridden and had lost the ability to use her hands - and she could not get her dentures into her mouth and she could not cope with her hearing aids!- she also had some really ugly times of anger - biting and spitting and telling me and the wonderful carers to f… off! Behaviour and language we never saw in her before! Then suddenly she would switch and be as sweet as sweet as can be! So these clips just remind me so much of mum - gorgeous! She also used to think I was her mummy! God bless you for the love and care you shower her with! From a fan in Aussie!🥰🥰🥰

[@susan9188]

It's a horrendous disease. I was sole carer for my Mum with Alzheimers for five years. I had to leave my job to care for her. During the Sundowner's, when they get worse, she threw her plate of dinner across the room, had diarrhea and was walking around so it was everywhere. I just broke down and cried on that occasion. The sufferer doesn't realise anything, they are oblivious, but the carers are the ones who get my total respect. It's tough, really tough. I wouldn't wish dementia on anyone, it's horrific.

[@Carol.Allison]

Aww Jess, I've looked after the elderly with dementia for years pleaae don't take it to heart what your nan says, she doesn't know what she's saying, if she didn't have dementia she wouldnt be talking to you like that. Give my love to your nan x

[@jl3319]

Youre doing a great job Jessica. I worked in a care home for a few years and this is pretty typical of dementia patients. You handle her excellently. She obviously loves you a lot. Keep on going as you are x

[@Jonr-lr1oe]

Your a wonderful granddaughter for taking care of your granny. She loves you very much. Its the illness that causes her to think this way. God bless you and your granny

[@tullophile]

Jessica, you are an absolute ANGEL to do all that you do. She loves you. Thank you for loving her.

[@didshereallysaythat]

I’m 59 and was diagnosed with SVD (small vessel disease) when I was 50… I know I’m going to get dementia, it’s a sad fact. My memory was so bad that I would forget quite frequently what I was saying in a conversation. Forgetting what I had said or others had said an hour earlier. So now I take vitamins B1 and B12 which have improved my memory. I hope I go home before my daughter has to see me go through painful dementia like you Jessica. You are amazing with your grandmother. A truly beautiful soul. ♥️

[@lemonjay2076]

You do a beautiful job of just loving her. You realize it’s her illness and you can’t take it personally. You’re an angel. God bless you Jessica.❤️

[@dawndexter9779]

Jess loves Jean, you can tell she loves her, without doubt. Jess hates being apart. Everything is respectful, and raises awareness of dementia. Keep up the good work ❤

[@Adrienne1968]

Your gran is a beautiful woman and she loves you. Ive only known dementia in one family person. My own mum had 2 forms of it brought on by a near fatal fall she had. I only got to see her the day she was dying as I only found out from a family member the day before where she was. Miles away from self. I had missed out on being there for her and that's why what your doing is so vital to you and your dearest gran. Wishing you both lots of love and thanking you for sharing both of your journeys with all of us. It's important to know what to expect and I used to work in a care home with the elderly mentally ill so do know how a day changes from one day to the next. Lots of love 😊❤xx

[@Cornerstonewtl]

My mum is 99 yrs old and home with me. Now, i know whats happening. This video is beautiful and very helpful. Sending love, hugs, prayers and support from Northern Canada

[@joleneminnaar3150]

Your Nan is so talkative. I looked after my mother for 5 years, my mother had demensia. My mother went to Heaven on 04 December 2024 last year. I was with my mother till the end. I always tried to have nice conversations with my mother but my mother was stuck with one thing. She just wanted to know where is her family and when is she going home. Doesn't matter what you try to turn the conversation. It's goes back to where is my family, when will i be going home and i must take her home. Then there is days, that we kidnapped her and she's going to the police and if my mother's father found out about this, we will be in big trouble. It's really really hard when you are all alone and you are with them 24/7. But if i must do it all over again, i will do it. I learned so much about demensia and all my strength come from our Lord Jesus🙏🏻my God Bless all the care takers out there. You are not alone.

[@sekab08]

You are a wonderful grandaughter. I live with and care for my grandmother who has alzheimer's. Its best to keep within their reality as its all they believe and understand at the time.

[@dawnsweeney4820]

You are such a strong young lady Jessica. I give you so much credit❤❤❤❤

[@susanalloyd5179]

Hi Jessica. Thank you for sharing your journey and normalising a member of your family in care and how that impacts the rest of the family. I'm an RN and if I ever have a patient with dementia who's acting a bit out of character (eg sleepier or more confused/aggressive than normal) I always look for a medical cause as well. It's common for an infection to cause some of these symptoms. Keep an eye out for a urinary tract infection (common in older ladies) or a sore throat/ears. An infected wound etc. It's sometimes hard to see it but increased confusion and tiredness is often one of the early symptoms. I'm not saying that's what's happening here It's just something to keep in mind and advocate for a urine sample to check. You're doing a wonderful job with your Nan. ❤

[@jeanandrews4200]

My mother is 95 and has vascular dementia. I am still learning from you how to deal with her. I often come away thinking I should have handled the visit better but all we can do is our best. No training , little help, so we do what we can.❤️

[@j.e.7028]

Its not easy,your doing your best,its all anyone can do,Be kind to yourself too

[@Shirley-t9b]

Can't your nan walk now or is it to advanced

[@bellaluna9408]

Jessica your so beautiful inside and out your grandma is beautiful and your strength is incredible i used to work with the elderly with dementia and Alzheimers your doing an amazing job xxxx

[@lorrainewilding9017]

Your such a caring beautiful person god love ya for all u do for your Nan ❤

[@taniahartley9799]

Thankyou for sharing your journey with your nan. I live with my dad who has vascular dementia/alzheimers also and he has gone from the most placid caring man to a rather verbally aggressive agro man which cuts me to the core to see. The most aggression comes out towards my mum they are forever arguing due to frustration with each other and before the dementia the never argued a day in their life. Its terribly sad to see.

[@michelled.3849]

She’s so darn sweet even today ! I love this relationship between the two of you. It’s beautiful.

[@Odracir1st]

Wow! Lots of respect how you kept your calm and showed your love for your Nan. Whoever said:" Gingers lack a soul" should view your vids.. You are, or have been, the best granddaughter 🌹🙏🙏🙏

[@margaretconnery7422]

Before my mum had dementia she never swore ,but afterwards she came out with a few good one's. Your nan doesn't mean what she's saying. 😊 xx

[@rebeccaleach2920]

Same with my Nan, she was such a lady then dementia took hold and buy she swore a lot but never ment anything by it

[@JanetJames-dw6xo]

Same with my friends mum she was the loveliest kindest lady who turned very aggressive.. So bad that 1 care home refused to have her there any longer. Dementia is very hard to understand.

[@EmilyPoyser-w7m]

I work in dementia care as a activties cordinator its very hard job which many care staff Don't understand and yes I have a lot of aggressive residents.

[@debbiederosier1591]

I’m currently dealing with this and trust me it’s not easy taken care of someone with dementia that’s nasty. Plus work and live with them 24/7 It effects your health more than theirs

[@margaretconnery7422]

@debbiederosier1591 I know where your coming from, it's not an easy task. Take care xx

[@heatherhofstetter488]

You are such a patient person Jess and I admire your diligence. Cannot be easy

[@deniwolf100]

Oh Jess 😢 what a tough day for you dear girl. You are doing a stellar job of walking this road with your lovely Nan. Sometimes this disease really throws us doesnt it. I recall a day like this with my Dad when he was palliative with Vascular Dementia where he suddenly went from being really kind and sweet (something I'd never known from him growing up) to suddenly being very verbally aggressive with me too and it was awful, like suddenly we were back to how he used to be at his most difficult. I'd gotten used to the way in which his dementia had stripped away the "Meanness" and it made it easier for me to help care for him, so when this happened it really threw me. At least with your Nan you know it's simply the disease and not who she ever was as she seems so loving and sweet with you. Sending you lots of strength for the days ahead and hopefully tomorrow will be a better day for you and Nan ❤

[@WendyHannan-pt7ez]

Oh that’s lovely, I love it when she says that. She’s very well mannered, she hasn’t lost her manners. Poor darling, she’s not having a good day today. Let’s hope she’s better tomorrow.💜

[@bubgum00]

You can’t take it personally. She definitely loves you, I can feel it when she’s in a good mood. My Mom had Dementia but she only acted out once before she passed away last year. I’m glad she didn’t suffer long with it.

[@turtledove6645]

Hi Jessica, new sub here from Australia. Your nan is so lucky to have such a loving granddaughter and family around her. Years ago I worked in aged care (housekeeping) and there were many residents who never received any visitors. You’re so kind and gentle with your Nan. Don’t let any negative comments get to you. Everyone has their own way of dealing with dementia, some may not agree but I’m sure you and your family know what’s best for your Nan. ☀️🙂

[@hooperman424]

I have watched alot of your vids now and I feel your sadness jessica while watching your vids,my grandad had the same diagnosis as nan and my grandad was a very independent person and didn't go into a care home till he was 92 and even then it was so hard to get him to go but he had set his kitchen on fire and he went in and died later that year and I know that being in there put so much pressure on him because he was surrounded with strangers and he was sad. It is very hard to see someone your so close too not know who you are and tge tough times with my grandad were heartbreaking but I now have so many great memories to think about and I never think about his last year,I've learned to look at the great times and you will too. Your an absolute gem of a granddaughter and you are blessed with a great heart and personality. Keep smiling and keep doing what your doing girl.Give my love to nan she is a diamond.

[@carolrodriguez2218]

I just love your grandma. I could tell she was a wonderful person and still is in her heart.

[@steve55sogood16]

Great to see you taking such a non confrontational approach, as opposed to trying to make sense of of her random comments! Best wishes for you both.

[@AmarnaJenniferWhitehouse]

I used to be a district nurse and a carer before that. There was one beautiful lady who had dementia, who one day would give me a black eye and the next day would be my best friend or I would even be her daughter from years past. It's one of the hardest but most rewarding jobs I ever had. Some days heart breaking but other days very rewarding. She was such a beautiful lady with many stories of her earlier years. I miss her so. You are right, a lot of the time they just want to be heard, even if it makes no sense at the time. Stay calm in your reactions and if aggression happens leave the room, making sure they are safe first. It is hard when any aggression happens, but it's part of their condition and you must never take it personal, as hard as that is sometimes. When it's a family member it is a lot harder, never knowing what that day held or where it would go, especially when you knew what type of person they used to be like before their condition. Love your insights Jess and the love you have for your nan. She is another beautiful soul. The love you share with your nan will always be there.

[@UserHilux579]

It’s hard losing them bit by bit. Bless everyone who chooses the pain involved in walking their loved ones home those last thorny few miles. Keep loving them.

[@jolewis8105]

Jess, you are an absolute angel. I understand how hard days like these can be. You are such a wonderful person. Take care of yourself x

You’re an amazing grand daughter for caring for her so well. ❤

[@fncain]

Awww bless ,you are so good kind and caring , it's so plain to see you both love each other dearly xxxx

[@lillyclive2641]

You're so lovely, I know how hard it is, I finished a masters degree and instead of working I became my Dad's carer, he's getting worse every day and can get aggressive but I would never change my decision regardless of what multiple people have told me about getting professional carers so I can move out and live my life but my father is my life ❤

[@UserHilux579]

Also same situation - gave up Psych career to nurse my late dad for 2 years. It is now the most precious memories I will ever possess and I am so glad I had that time with him and could do that for him. The best paid carer on earth can still not be as comfortingly familiar as a loving child can - great decision. ❤

[@OnMyGrindNowForever]

At a point in time, you may need to decide if they'd have a better quality of life in a care home. So if you ever make that decision to put them in a care home, don't feel bad. At a point, I realized my father would have a much better quality of life in a care home as they are better equipped and more qualified to help them

[@kimberlydeeney5652]

Same here as well for my mom. Medical Lab Tech. My mom was sick for years. The last 8 months home hospice. My 40 year old nephew came back home up North to help me. Couldn't have done it without him.

[@BLThom321]

Jessica, you are doing a wonderful job! I saw the hurt on your face in a brief moment-- but your tone of voice and mannerisms set the correct path. Hang in there. Your Nan can't help it. She is still precious.

[@AleciaL]

I wish I’d had your strength and courage to be there for my Mom as you have done for your Gran

[@kimberlyronfeldt-doty1669]

You are so sweet Jess and so loving and understanding. Your Nan is truly blessed to have you!

I wanna let you no how important it is sharing you're journey, you are a kind loving, understanding soul and I love you and your nanna and I want to tell you that your helping others going through this and we need this. And anyone one else going through this I love you and wish you the best xxxxx

[@LUCKYDUCKY1965]

I was recommended this channel just now and figured I'd have a peek. I am so very happy I found your channel. This brought tears to my eyes and I felt every word she said--- in my heart, as I saw you did a bit also by the look on your face. I cared for my mom at home whom passed 6 months ago from cancer and we too had these 'moments'. They were VERY difficult at the time and it still hurts my heart to this day. We have to remember that they do not mean the things they are saying- these cruel words. They are confused and it is the sickness, not them. I adore you for being there for her. She is a sweetheart I can tell. Be Blessed, you and your nan and thank you for all you do!

[@val515]

My Mother had Dementia she has since passed away & now my Sister has it she has been in a care home for 2 years & does not talk anymore ,would love that she could be like your Nanna & speak to me , she sometimes cries when she see's me , if I can make her smile then that is making my day ..... Please do not listen to people who are being so mean to you , if they had to deal with it they would know how difficult it is , would not wish it on anyone including the troll on here today . I love to watch you & your Nan & thank you for sharing Nans journal ❤

[@Luv2knit]

You're such a wonderful granddaughter, Jess and Nan is a treasure. Sending love to you both ❤❤

[@kaylibert4020]

You do such a good job. Even though you know not to take it to heart, some of it leaks in. You want so much to be comforting and helpful, when the disease twists into distress ots hard. But you don't't argue and patently try to divert - you are doing such a good job. People with advanced dementia leave in the moment (whenever that may be) and to try to make the next moment as peaceful and pleasant as can be is the very best you can do. You do it so well. God bless you and Nan.

[@kittenclaws02]

You did great with her Jess. I understand it must hurt. But just know you handled it amazingly ❤

[@babegurl101]

Never take the worst words to the heart due to dementia. You are so good at it. Love it ❤

[@mandynuttall6627]

My mum often used to talk about people being locked up for life, we thought perhaps she'd dreamt it, it was a common theme so very interested to see your nan talking about similar things xx

[@Lexi_________]

You handled that situation very well. It's similar to what I've had to deal with regarding my mum's dementia. I learned to play along and just turn everything she says into something positive, even if it's nasty. You're very capable and in tune with your nan's needs and should feel very good about that, especially on these hard days :)

[@HMMC101]

You handled this with such grace. I know you love your Nan more than anything. I will keep you both in my prayers. Dementia is such a horrible disease that takes our loved ones away way before they’ve passed. It is cruel for their person suffering and everyone around them that loves them. You are doing the best thing by being there, being kind, and loving her through it. This is not your Nan saying those things to you. My great grandfather had dementia and my mom said he couldn’t get out any of his words because he was so unclear. But when he’d get angry-he was crystal clear. He got out every frustration and every curse word. Absolutely crazy how the disease affects people.

[@michelleshephard9690]

I look after people like your gorgeous Nan. You do amazing. Being intune with their environment is key. Listening and recognising a possible trigger is key. Your Nan accepting her drink is positive. It's so hard for families. Thank you for sharing your journey it helps us who are nursing and caring for those with all types of dementia x

[@andy_intruder]

Awwwwwww Jess, don't forget your knickers 🤣🤣 You deserve 2 years for breaking out of Prison last time Jess lol. Seriously though it was sad to see her like that but i absolutely love how you held it together and still showed her all the love you have for her as obviously none of it was meant. I have so much respect for you Jess, you are just a beautiful and caring young woman. Sending you big hugs and keep smiling, you're amazing x

Hi jess thank you for sharing your video's with your beautiful nan.i work in a home solely for people with dementia and it was physical and mentally challenging.in saying that it had its moments of satisfaction when you would see glimpses of that person personality if only for a short time.its lovely to see you tae so much time to visit and make your nan feel loved as i have often seen people in the home who did not have any visitors so in hindsiight we were there family x

[@lorrainecann683]

Your videos remind me so much of my mum, you’re so good with her- patient and just agreeing ( even when they’re talking nonsense) it’s really hard seeing someone you love like this. She is so lucky to have you. I saw my mum every day and my heart used to break every time, but also for all those other elderly people in her home that had no one and no visitors. Keep up your loving work with your nan❤❤

[@jamielukejarviscaddick]

[@MarieSharp-uu9uu]

You are so good with your gran Jessica my heart breaks and I laugh in equal measure . I pray some day they find a cure for this awful disease. Your gran is so lucky to have you and you are so lucky to have your gran.

[@jojo1234a]

Oh my love I remember these days with my Nan like it was yesterday. She doesn’t mean it, I promise you this. You are doing so well by joining her in whatever her reality is, with a soothing and chirpy voice and personality. You are doing everything right, and this journey doesn’t come with a handbook. The bad days are dreadful and emotionally exhausting, but you will still have plenty of times where Nan is happier even if it’s in her version of reality. You may even get peeps of recognition from her. She is a wonderful woman. After caring for my Nan for 5 years through this, on her deathbed she recognized me, just for a moment, touched my hair and asked me to sing to her some more. She was very deaf but she heard so clearly in those hours before she went into her coma and then to sleep forever. You will never ever regret what you are doing, you will only regret things you should have done but didn’t. More importantly, you are looking after yourself, I wish I had done that. I made myself ill to the point I had nothing for myself, let along anything to give others of me. Never feel ashamed of having a moment to yourself. My Nan never went to a care home, we moved near to her and between us we managed. I’d lie awake at night thinking, wondering if I should go back in and check on her, but I needed half an hour to just listen to music. I knew she was safe while I gathered my thoughts. Well done lovely lovely granddaughter.

[@hayleymorris6294]

My precious mam ( my best friend) was in her final days with pancreatic cancer, and she had terminal agitation and didn't know my dad and I and said we were trying to hurt her. She ripped out her line ( syringe driver), that was feeding her medication and hit my dad with it. To say we were devastated is an understatement. She was so weak yet managed to get out of bed ( we were caring for her at home). My mam was the kindest lady that ever walked this earth and , like your nan, would be mortified . Also, she couldn't verbalise that she wanted a wee ( she had pads on for her own safety), and she was laying there screaming. It was horrific. I hope and pray that one day that those memories will fade. Jess, you are an outstanding young lady, and you're an absolute angel 😇 Sending love and strength to anyone affected by anything like this. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ You are enough. You are doing your best! Xxxxxxx

My Mom had dementia and when she would get aggressive it always hurt my feelings, even though I KNEW it was the disease causing it. You handle things very well. ❤

[@danaott2849]

See my mother is in her early 70s and she has suffered from schizophrenia most of her life but had gotten much worse throughout the years.. To me it almost seems like a sort of dementia because she's even seeing and hearing things and when I visit it can go a number of different ways.. But, can also be quite hurtful sometimes.. I love to watch Jess & her lovely Nan.. Even tho my mother's diagnosis is not the same it can be very similar at times.. So these videos help bring a lot of things into perspective for me and a feeling of not being alone.. And, I also find a lot of comfort through the comment section/ community.. Thanks to all of you and have a blessed weekend..😊

What a lovely lady, I cared for my Grandfather for 7 years, he lived with us, he used to turn on us like that, he thought we were intruders and often tried to throw us out of the house. It was heartbreaking, I Am in my 70s now and I Pray every day that it won’t happen to me. I do a lot of Brain puzzles on my iPad to try and keep my mind exercised. I don’t know if it does any good. I have made my daughter promise not to Put themselves through that if it happens to me. 🙏🙏

My mum got a bad UTI once and she became really aggressive till her urine was checked. I remember these rare times of mum's aggression was a guessing game but luckily rare . Jess , you are doing great 🎉🎉🎉 . Love to you and nan xx

I understand. When my Mom got U.T.I.s it was ten times worse.

When you leave nan, instead of saying goodbye, tell her your going shopping. Nan will settle quickly after the visit. She is adorable.

I love this but i think it wouldnt be amazing to lie to her as she has dementia

Jessica is a natural, a very good carer.

For the last few months before my Gran died she got really violent and was lashing out physically and mentally. It's so sad to see and hear 😢 Stay blessed ❤

[@Little_Jessx]
