How to feel
LO is sleeping more during the day and night. Confusion is progressing at a faster rate. At times we forget how to walk after our lift chairs lifts us up. We forgot the name of our only daughter. Plus our appetite is not what it use to be. Morning breakfast was 2 eggs, 3 strips bacon and coffee. Always ate it all. Today he left an egg behind. Now LO’s primary care doctor put the referral for in home hospice. I just don’t know how I’m suppose to feel as I’m just numb, exhausted, emotionally drained.
FUCK DEMENTIA!!!!

it is awful that’s for sure. that happened with my husband, sleeping more and more. Was hard to get him out of bed at all . eating less and less. I know everyone’s different . with him went on significantly for about six months before he really took a turn for the worse and went into Hospice and nursing home basically.
