  2. Dear Imogene, I remember reading the horror story of Don's experience with risperdal...  Did you go visit today?  I hope you had a good day.  We went to Mom's early this afternoon, and had another Thanksgiving feast - both my girls were there, an

  3. Shirley:  Have you contacted your state social rehabilitation services office?  This is the procedure we used.  They will suggest dividing the assets, which is a time-consuming process and should be started asap.  Then, they will assign 50 percen

  5. Leah, you certainly went the distance with your father and can always get comfort in that thought. It's amazing how much relief we can feel through the grief, which just endorses what a brutal demise LBD can bring. You sound strong, but do allow yo

  9. Pammie, you're strong too. If you cry hard that doesn't mean you're less strong. It usually means that you get over the mourning phase faster, because you can let it out. Love a lot, Imogene In a message dated 12/14/2008 8:43:51 PM Central Stand

  14. Hi ette, Oh my goodness, are you describing LBD or what? My word dear, they are classic LBD symptoms. Part of his problem may very well be the Activan. It and Haldol are very bad for LBD. Also, any infection will make matters worse. A low grade

  19. She called this afternoon, and she's sounding better. When she called a few days ago, I was the enemy - she was very very angry about things that weren't true (or, she was fabricating to manipulate me which is maybe even more likely). Today she was

  20. I'm so sorry to hear about your mother's situations.  It sounds so similar to my mom's LBD progression. My mom moved in with my husband and me in May, 2006, after Dad died and, of course, due to all the changes (loss of spouse, major move (from TX

  24. Dear Sherry, I'm glad to hear that you have been able to iron things out, and that everyone seems to be on the same page in terms of your MOm's care. Hopefully when she gets back to King's, maybe they can find another room for her that is not noisy,

  25. Mom has fallen a few times and the physical therapist found that Mom had some nerves in her feet that wasn't sensitive to touch, so I thought maybe it was part of LBD but I guess it is due to age.  She will be 87 in December.  Thanks for checking.
