I would love to hear your ideas for tunes I can download from iTunes for my frail mum. She is starting to find it hard to concentrate on tv shows. She is remembering her childhood and her life when aged in her 20s and 30s but not my childhood. She did serve in the wrens and likes marching tunes but I don't want to play we'll meet again type songs as they evoke negative emotions and she is very anxious at times. Her mother died when my Mum was only 10 mths old and her step-mother verbally abused her and physically abused her brother. She has a borderline personality disorder belatedly diagnosed after i met her psychiatrist re here alzheimers - throughout her life she has been prone to suidical thoughts and mood swings but refused to go to the gp.
I need jolly or calming ideas please to bring a smile to her - Alzheimers and this tragic past is a dreadful mix.
Many thanks.
