Hi everyone. My dad is 64 and has early onset dementia. We got the diagnosis a few weeks ago. Dad is becoming increasingly isolated and it worries my sister and I especially with lockdown there is not much by the likes of support groups/ cafes in his area. I mentioned Christmas to him today as I really don't want him to be alone and said bean book taxis to bring him to my house and take him home as we are his suppprt bubble. He was so dismissive, saying he doesn't like taxis 🤷🏼♀️just want to spend some "fun" time with my dad instead of the usual high stress drs appointments etc. Any suggestions on ways I can encourage him to "want" to socialise? I just see him deteriorating infront on my eyes it's so sad. What do you guys who care for your parents do for Christmas normally? Am I just expecting too much from him? It breaks my heart to think of him all alone sat watching the news on repeat.
