Dementia humor doesn't show up for work everyday (slacker), but looking back on daily texts can bring a smile to my caustic countenance. That is, well after the murderous rage has dissipated.
Hahahaha! Gaffer tape! I never thought of that. I'm guessing there's times when our moms would like to use gaffer tape on us too. ;)

Oh Cheryl so glad you can laugh at the absurdities of it too. I would also be interested to know what the neurologist thinks define end stages? I'm terrified it's going to be a 10 year journey although as Mum is already unable to walk I suspect not. I'm a big fan of Teepa Snow and her gems model shows that variability and stages can be blurry. My brothers solution for the current spitting (in anger/frustration) issue is gaffer tape. (no we daren't implement it in real life)

I'm hoping you can teach us too - the neurologist can tell you…

Hello ladies. I have no idea how I stumbled upon your blog but I'm glad I did. My friends and coworkers keep telling me that I should write all this stuff down because it is just way too hilarious. I just read your text about "killing" your mom and fleeing to Mexico. I'm at work and it took everything I had not to burst out with a good belly laugh. That was way too funny. I needed the laugh today. I took my mom to the neurologist and received the news that I knew I "needed" to hear but didn't "want" to hear, mom is now in end stage dementia. Yes I cried and cried until I could r…
