My pop has dementia and my mum sees him everyday in the nursing home and it's fucked her up. There is other family trauma at the root of her issues, but long story short, she has lost her mind and claims that her sister (they hate each other) has put a curse on her and her father and now apparently there evil/demons in her house.My mum unfortunately has it and I can attest that it is a horrible disease. My mum has an aggressive personality which my sister's and I are struggling with. She won't let us take control of her meds and she isn't taking them properly herself.
She has managed to break me on numerous ocassions and I simply cannot cope with her anymore. To me, she is a different person.
I cant believe how this disease can change a person so much....
This is only occured since Thursday and I tried to encourage her to get help, but she said if you all get me locked up and I can't say goodbye to dad when he passes soon, that she will kill herself.
So yeah the disease is nasty and manifests it's way into all vulnerable relatives...
As bad as it sounds I want my pop to die so he's at rest / not suffering and I can get my mother the help she needs.
I hope everything with your mum gets easier in time.
