Re: Not sure what to do !!!

Hey @Shaz51 

 

Your dear old mother - into giving gifts at this stage of her life - that is a kind of blessing showing that side of her nature - yes - you might get a lot of gifts now because she forgets she has given them - maybe worried herself that she might forget - it's sad but cute at the same time

 

Sending hugs - life's not easy Shaz - the dear old soul - I really care about her and admire her strength -

 

Hugs for both of you from your second Mum

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

@Owlunar, @Shaz51, dementia is odd. Sometimes it changes the personality, sometimes it seems to bring out the strongest underlying characteristics of the person to a greater degree. My Dad's "sweet gentleman" character has really come to the front (along with the cheeky give-you-a-ribbing aspect). Sound like your @Shaz51 Mum's underlying generosity is front and fore.
