This is a long story...
In a nutshell
Nana has since 2014 slowly deteriorated in her mental health and shows all the signs of Alzheimer's a d what I believe is now stage five dementia... Has ALL the symptoms.
Grandad is a stubborn old man and frail and won't accept any help from anyone with anything at all! He treats my Nana like a naughty child shouts at her and controls every aspect of her life to what she eats and drinks and even if she gets out of her armchair to leave the room.
She had one social care visitor three years ago who apparently said Nana was getting old and had short term memory problems.
Since then there had been no further attempts for medical care regarding her mental health.
Mother is a pathological liar... Something I've lived with for nearly 40 years. She insists she's done she can to obtain medical care for Nana but states a doctor told her 'nana can do do crossword puzzles she hasn't got dementia!" The same sentance she uttered years ago when then social worker apperently assessed my Nana!
I know full well this is utter rubbish a f mother is pandering to my Grandads wishes as he wants nothing to change and obviously has no concerns for Nana's medical needs
Nana is deaf, can't use the phone and is locked in the house at night with no out if anything happens to Grandad or there's a fire.
She doesn't know family.members including mother. She doesn't know her birthday, what happened five minutes ago, speaks to the TV as if the people are real in her living room. Can't dress herself, can't cook, can't make a cup of tea doesn't sleep and wanders screaming all night.
I called Safegaurding who put me in touch so social services.
They have said they need consent from my Grandparents before they can act... I've explained everything and waiting for a call back.
Anyone been through similar? Or can advise?
I'm the only person in my family who seems to want to act and do anything about it!
Thanks
