Mother With Dementia Thinks She Has To Have A Boyfriend - She Found One Now A I Am Not Sure Where To Go With This
My mom started a physical/romantic relationship with another person in the facility she is living in. She thinks they have know each other for years when it has only been a few weeks. I would not worry as much if she made sound decisions but her dementia is at a state where she does not. And she does not care what we say. The man also has issues from a stroke. He has memory issues as well just not a much as mom. I think he is a bit domineering. Not sure what to do
I had a similar situation with my Father in his care home. Ended p they were locking themselves in toilets,going to each other's rooms and she was declaring undying love for him.They both had dementia and thought they had known each other for years. The home took it on board and moved the lady to another building. That was end February. Think they have forgotten about each other now
This is fairly common in care homes and am sure staff observe their interactions...there are a couple of movies about these type of "romances".
My sister-in-law went threw this at the home she was in. It is a big home so they moved the man to another section.
So now they are alone again? Did the home separate them for good reasons or to keep you happy?
