My mum was diagnosed 5 years ago with Alzheimer's. Recently suffered vaginal prolapse dealt with by inserting a shelf pessary. All very traumatic as she doesn't understand any of it. District Nurse now turning up nightly to insert hormone cream into her vagina. Again, doesn't understand. Screaming. Shouting. Refusing. What can we do? District Nurse isn't going to put up with this every evening for the next fortnight and then every other evening for the next fortnight. Amy advice please?
