Prayers for my Dad

[judy]

I am so sorry, Linda. He is in my prayers.

My friend's 97 year old Mom just went into a nursing home for dementia. Yesterday was the first time she was violent. That's a symptom of dementia, and they are talking about medication. My friend doesn't want her Mom too sedated though. She is mobile, and, when she remembers, has a group of "the girls" she sits with. She does have a safety bracelet on so that she cannot escape though. It sets off an alarm.

The most difficult part is when the person realizes that their thinking and memory are gone. Hopefully, your Dad does not have those moments. Just love him the way he is, and do not expect him to be lucid for long.
