After my singing lesson today I visited mum. I always do. The first thing I did was to put a kind of plastic protector over my shoes so I don’t wet the floors in the home.
This time this thing got wet inside and I was in a puddle of water. Although I had tried to get the snow off the soles of my shoes, I was completely wet through.
I came into mum’s room and there she was, trying to put shoes on her feet. Her coat was on the bed. I had to get something to dry the floor with. I had wet it. Of course I had to take my shoes off. Then I wanted helped mum get into her good new indoor shoes again. The one's my son Beggi got her for Christmas.
But I could not do that at once. It was not so easy. She had one of the indoors shoes on and an outdoor shoe. I could not find her other shoe anywhere.
She hides everything. That is a part of her illness. I looked in all drawers and the closet. To no avail. Then I looked at the window and there was her shoe on the windowsill.
She had been going out when I came. Of course she dose not go out alone anymore. She said she was going to a shoemaker. Then it was a shoe shop . I told her she had plenty of shoes but she forgot it and was going within a minutes period.
She also said she needed coffee. She had to go out and buy a pack of coffee. I told her she got everything at the home that they gave her food and coffee but she forgot that also and kept talking about it.
She was not completely happy. I felt like I just wanted to go, run out, but I stayed of course. The best thing was when she saw someone walking by. Every one that went by was my aunt and we talked about what my aunt was doing.
It is no fun seeing once mother deteriorating like this
