A Blog for care givers to talk freely. Give and receive tips in caring for a loved one with dementia. My mother was diagnosed with moderate Alzheimer's 3 1/2 years ago. She is now suffering with severe Alzheimer's.

A new mom
This is a hard blog. My mother is basically coherent. We have small conversations. She tells me if she likes what I am feeding her. She tells me what sounds good to eat. She says thank you. Responds when then breeze falls on her with," that is so nice". tells me Good night honey. Things I have not heard in 8 months. She chuckles, smiles appropriately. I am elated but wary at the same time. Her voice is weak ( small). I will try and not question all this. My mom is in a happy place. She appears calm and content. What more can I ask when dealing with such an ugly disease. Prayers to all.
