Getting your loved one to do whatever

v Care Giving for Dementia Trying to get your loved one to do what ever Episode # 89 There are times when you try to get your loved one to do something that they don't want to do. When that happens the only thing that you can do is back off and give a little better time and try again you just need to keep trying until it works. There are times where your loved one doesn't want to eat now here with Mama sometimes that's three days. We usually are able to get her drinks down her but not always. Mama sometimes just takes these spells where she just doesn't want to eat anything at all doesn't want to drink anything at all, and most of the time she'll let you know that she doesn't want it. We have come to the understanding that these ensures, boost, and Glucerna drinks are meal within themselves so as long as we can get mamas Glucerna her, she's okay. With taking a bath there are times that Mama doesn't want to take a bath I have come to conclusion that this is part of dementia. A lot of times we have to bath mom whether or not she wants to take a bath. And a lot of times you have to back off and give her a little better time and go back to trying to give her a bath and she's fine with a bath. As far as sleeping when Mama was first diagnosed with this dementia and at times it was a pain to get Mama to go to bed. The boy had to get up early in the morning and go to school when the wife had to get up and go to work in various things and Mama didn't always want to go to bed when we went. I didn't like going to bed and leaving her awake by yourself so I stayed up as late as she did and then I would lay down most of the time when she was down.v Cowboy Theme Pacav 1711860633 is Royalty Free Music
