Guest guest Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Ida, tell your mother not to worry, it's a symptom that occurs quite often with LBDers. It's something that has to do with the frontal temporal lobe of the brain that causes sexual desire. The brain is damaged there and your father is only doing what that brain portion is controlling him to do. Some get very sexually amorous and others shout lewd remarks. If your dad has a female nurse, he may even get amorous with her. Let your mom know it is nothing against her, it's Lewy acting out, your dad has no control over it. He wouldn't be doing this if he were in his right mind. I have heard this story many times on this site in different ways, but it is always from a sexual desire. I had it explained to me by a nurse once. The ego doesn't allow you to get sexual in public places, also some LBDers strip off their clothes in public. The ego doesn't want others to dislike it for it's mannerisms, so they behave in public places, they have morals. With LBDers they lose their ego and the Id takes over. The id is caveman and primative, it doesn't care who is watching or if they are acting right in public, so don't be disturbed by this act. It's an LBD thing. I know you will hear from more people that have experienced this. Jan Colello Husband, Jim, dx w/LBD/PDD Oct. 2003 symptoms occurred in 2000 Deceased, January 22, 2011   Subject: Unusually amorous? To: LBDcaregivers Date: Tuesday, July 12, 2011, 2:30 PM  My mom asked me to see if anyone has experienced a symptom where their loved ones are suddenly rather...er..um..amorous? -With an extremely delusional vision of their own impressive libido and personal stamina/readiness?! This is relating to a male (my father), actually, and it is really taking her by surprise, as it even occurs when he doesn't recognize she is his wife! The hits just keep on comin'! -Ida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
