I used to work at a call center for an utility company. Time to time I would receive calls from seniors with Alzheimer’s. This one time I received a call from this super nice lady and she was talking to me for about 45 minutes about things that didn’t really connect (My stats were ruined but I didn’t really care at that point). Then out of nowhere she started telling me stories about her and her late husband and started crying saying how much she missed him and how they used to get brunch at IHOP every Sunday after church. Then she said that she was going to be riding in his Bel Air with his arm around her soon. She then asked to be transferred to a supervisor and gave many compliments about me before disconnecting. I still think about that call during times that I’m down.

My grandad suffered from vascular dementia. One night he managed to exit the care home and was walking around in the rain looking for his army base. A young man found him in the the park and went along with his story and guided him to the nearest store where they called an ambulance. He was ok but might not have been if it wasn't for the man that helped him

@deeanna8448 Ай бұрын

I was going to work one day, and there was a woman with a walker walking down one side of a 2 lane street. Cars were backed up and people were passing her. I pulled over into a parking lot and walked up to her. By then, another woman had stopped to help and guided her off the road. She was trying to go to church. It was a Tuesday. The other lady told the woman that church had been cancelled for the day and I went to the nursing home down the street that she had obviously wandered from. They were already aware and had been looking for her.

@deeanna8448 Ай бұрын

@@annaelisavettavonnedozza9607 this is just my experience. I am not a senior healthcare worker. With my grandmother, it was definitely easier to go along in most cases. For example, she would frequently ask about people who had died years ago. If she asked "How are Johnny and Llly?" at first we'd say "remember Grandma? They died a long time ago" it would upset her every time. There was no benefit to making her grieve over and over, so we'd instead say "they're both well and send their love". She used to accuse my Grandpa of never visiting and to argue that he was there every day agitated her, so he finally started saying "I'm sorry honey. I'll do better." Obviously if it's something dangerous, you have to respond differently. If she said she was going to walk out the door and go to church like the lady in my earlier post, you can't say "sure, go ahead." You have to try to redirect.

@annasofiehjelm6332 Ай бұрын

You know, that really brought tears to my eyes 😥And thank goodness for that young man! Many years ago my dad ran into a former farmer in the parking lot at his job, it was in the middle of the winter and this old farmer was on his way home to check on his cattle. He was in his shirt, didn't know what day or even year it was and hadn't had cattle for decades. Dad managed to get him back inside by turning farmhand and promising to take care of this old man's cattle. However, I do feel greater respect for that (strange?) young man.

Both my parents had dementia at the same time. Both had it in different degrees. My older brother lived in their town and was the primary caretaker. It took a big toll on him emotionally. Mom died in October of 2018 and dad died 3 months later. Now 5 years later, I am beginning to show signs of dementia too. To be honest I am terrified. I am not afraid of death, but losing my memory is another matter. The last guy really got to me, my dad was named Richard too, but everyone called him Dick.

This is touching to me. I lost my mother to Alzheimer's. She would often wake up at 3am, leave the house, and walk across a busy highway wearing nothing but a diaper. I promised her I would never send her to a home, but going against that promise to her was the most painful decision I ever had to make. The illness took her in only about two years, and I was sure to always give her her meds each day.

She tells me things in my dreams but she can never seem to understand how I just show up. Her last words before I wake are usually "I don't know how you are here because you aren't dead yet." There is a bridge that we pass after we fall asleep, and it diverges off to those who are no longer with us in life. I seem to be able to explore across that bridge during the period of time when I'm having my most vivid dreams but I never stay very long because it is so very loud there.

Grandma tried to walk out and was upset when my aunt in law made her come into the room with me.

I love what would you do and I watch all the videos. This one touched me because my Grandad has lewy body dementia and seeing how it has affected some of the people in this one makes you feel less alone. It's a horrible illness. I love my Grandad and he has his good days and bad, I'm thankful I still have him but I miss the old him sometimes.

i'm 73. my wife has vascular dementia. the mental strain is horrible--above the physical. our living room looks like a medical supply locker. i've resorted to malwart's grocery delivery, because i've gotten to where even shopping is too much extra physical stress for me. thank you john and crew for this episode. the second segment brought tears to my eyes. with 2 exceptions, everyone on both sides of my family have died from dementia. it's a soul destroying and dehumanizing tragedy. again, thank you.

Tracy needs a job in soap operas or drama because my goodness she is AMAZING every time. And this particular one shows her range.

Love seeing Tracy as not the bad guy for a change! Also, I watched my grandfather deal with this with his mom when she got much older. They moved her into a retirement home for her last few years. I was told once about the time when she mistook a tv remote for a cordless phone. That's when it really hit me how awful the conditions are and can be, not just the sufferers but the families witnessing it. He seemed exhausted after every visit my family would have with them to see her. She passed away after her 93rd birthday.

This brought me to tears...my mom was diagnosed with late onset dementia 2 years ago and I was forced into the role of caring for her. This was a perfect depiction of what caring for a loved one with dementia looks like. You're tired all the time, you feel the need to explain yourself to strangers...thank you for bringing awareness to this awful disease.
