Hi all - mum has moderate dementia / alzheimer's and we're all trying to make the best of it. She's increasingly becoming stressed and worried about fictitious things - I wondered what mechanisms anyone employs to deal with it? N.B., we've passed the stage of diverting tactics, calmly reassuring etc etc - I'm asking more about strategies to deal with it / reassure mum, when we're back to square one after reassuring her x10! e.g spending 10 minutes reassuring her, then having to the same thing again 5 minutes later, then rinse & repeat again & again...
