my mother has alzheimer

[OOWard]

Im not sure but I think that my mother started to have Alzheimer. I tried to talk with her about this thing but she sad that I’m paranoiac and that everything its ok. I dont know maybe shes right but Im scared because I dont want to lose her shes the person that I love most and only the thought that this can happen is destroying my mind. I dont know how to explain her that she have to take care about herself and not to eat fast foods, cupcakes and other food that affect her health.

 

What about Alzheimer I started to think about this disease because I noticed that my mom started to forget elementary things. I know that she is not perfectly healthy because she is overweight and she has other diseases we did some exams some months ago I practically forced her to go. Now I noticed these strange break downs in her memories. She forgets essentially things such as what we did today or she is asks me 3 times the same question during 10 minutes so this is really strange she never had this before.

 

I dont want to overact about this situation maybe she is just very forgetful. Please reply please if there is somebody that knows something or can just calm me down. Im very stressed and I just want to know that everything is ok!

Oh my God I’m worried too. My mom deals with alzheimers for almost 8 years. But now I started to notice that things are getting worse. My mom always forget things like what did she ate or what did she did this morning but in the last month I observed that she started to forget me, my sister and in generally all the family or our friends. There are those days when she started to scream “Help” when I’m trying to hug her. Other days she just woke up and is asking who is she who am I and things like that. I’m really scared I don’t know how to react and how to deal with it. Today she made me cry when she started to say that I’m nobody to her and that she has no family.

 

My mom’s sister has the same thing but is worse. She doesn’t remember anybody. My mom don’t remember us just for a couple of minutes while my mom’s sister don’t remember anybody at all. I’m scared that this will happen to my mom to and that after some months she will become like her sister. I can’t stand this. This is stronger than me. I don’t know how to deal with it. Please help me, what am I supposed to do?

Altzheimer is terrible. My father had this for more than 15 years, unfortunately he passed away so today I can only remember all the situations that I passed through. There isn’t a recommendation to what to do or how to deal with it. For example I have had the same thing. It was very difficult every time to explain to him who I am and who is he but I never thought to get rid of him. I was always thinking: what if I will have the same thing? Would I be happy if my father will get rid of me?

So I think that it’s your own decision what to do. It’s about what you feel. Of course I understand that it creates you big problems. To your family relatives and so on… But you just have to sit down and to think what will be better to you and to your mom. Don’t worry to fail in your decisions. There may be one day when your mom will understand you.
