Continuing the “pillow-less” visit! Mom asking for dad was a joy. That is something she never does anymore. Saying our names or even close to our names is gone. It was a pleasure to see her asking for him and talking about going to her house. A painful pleasure. #alzheimers #dementia #memorycare #memorycareunit #mylittlemomma #mcdonalds #cheeseburger #fries #roommates #nursinghome #memory #lunch #DementiaAwareness #LifeWithDementia #AlzheimersAndDementia #CaringForMom #DementiaJourney #CaregiverLife #MemoryCareMoments #SeniorStories #ElderCare #momentswithmom #sharingthejourney #familyfirst

With my failed attempts at getting mom to sit in the dining hall area, we moved outside. She sat there quite comfortably so I am still confused as to the standing in the dining room. Its clear in this video that mom had “left.” The smile I got from her when I first arrived was the closest I got to seeing mom that day. I don’t know if it was over stimulation or her meds kicking in or what. But she was very fuzzy and into her own mind I think. The way she loved on the cat was odd and new. I’m not sure what to make of that at all. All in all it was a very strange visit that left me sad at the end. #dementia #sundowners #groupsundowners #mylittlemomma #alzheimers #damnetia #memorycare #memorygoround #damnentia #catlover

Cookies after Canes and a bit more cat-chat. :) #dementia #alzheimer #memorycare #memorycareunit #mylittlemomma #catlover #cattherapy #cookietime

Mom wasn’t in her room or the main area when I arrived but was in somone else’s room. I think that person was experiencing sundowners. Not entirely sure. We took a walk downstairs and had a really good visit. I’ll share more over the next day or so. #dementia #alzheimer #memorycare #memorycareunit #momsoftiktok #mylittlemommaandi
