Just wanted to see if anyone had any tips and advice. My grandparents have just moved into sheltered accommodation (finally) so hoping this is point to improve things.
But anyway- my mum is basically their main cater (she has 3 siblings about as useful as a chocolate fire guard - brothers funnily enough) and her sister helps but still works full time.
I try my best to take some of the burden from my mum as it must be so hard but she does everything without complaint. My Grandad rings her constantly about silly things. My Nan has Alzheimer's (has done for approx 3 years now) and he just doesn't get it. He has vascular dementia but generally just does illogical things.
I just want advice what I can do for my mum- or how I can get her to delegate a bit so she's not doing everything. I keep saying- ring me if need to go round for whatever but she never does and then I find out after that she's been 3 times that day because my Nan has had a meltdown. (These have decreased drastically as we have started some ahem drugs- highly recommended)
So yeah- really I just want to help my mum help my grandparents.
