Dove, your little ritual is good. Watch the sea and sky and reflect. If Ma's OK in her own world then let her live there. Must be sooo difficult for you though (hugs).
Dove, hugs x It must be so hard to visit and to just use avoidance, but it is the best way, if staff enlighten Ma it is like being bereaved every day I send you hugs x
Been in a similar fantasy place with my Dad but at least he was content some of the time. Although he did think Mum had run off on the back of a truck with some soldiers Plus the staff sold drugs and he was the only one who didn't get fish & chips for his breakfast he had to have porridge!
Years ago the Alzheimer's society stopped referring to people with dementia as sufferers, after a chap stood up at our annual AGM and said his wife wasn't suffering he was The family and carers are the ones who hurt. Hope you put your feet up have a nice meal and relax x

Trying to catch up but only had a skim through. I will message you later Dove x
Thunder and hail W'song We didn't get the lightning that was forecast but it's not warm by any means. 4 degrees yesterday when I went to work and never got into double figures. Slightly better today but it wouldn't be hard
KEF - I'm getting my new crown fitted tomorrow - I won't get any change from £360. Can I come and get it done at your dentist?
