| Re: prayers for mom-in-law I called SIL yesterday & her boyfriend said she's in Cancun on vacation (spontaneous - but seems to be well needed).
So he updated me on MIL.......last time SIL tried feeding her with a fork she grabbed & slammed it on table & it went flying. MIL's new thing is using "no" utensils to eat off the plate. Sad but it's a disease.
Perhaps the Alzheimers unit uses spoons for a reason, 'cuz the forks can become weapons in flight. So one thing I've learned about Alzheimer's patients is to try to keep things "routine" (so use a spoon, if that's what they're used to). |
