Hi,
Sorry if this is in completely the wrong place!
I am a carer for my parents. My mum has Alzheimer's. she has been getting steadily worse for the last 5 ish years.
She has a friend who is very selfish and is always complaining to my mum about her life and everything going on in it.
About a year ago she tried to insinuate to my mum that my dad was having an affair (this woman worked in the same field as my dad.)
She completely confused and upset my mum- understandably.
She called the other day and I picked up and told her to not call again as she was confusing my mum and my mum has enough to deal with.
I have just seen 2 missed calls from her on my mums mobile, which although she doesn't use, she may still look at.
My mum keeps saying she feels sorry for this woman.
I don't know what to do? How to make her leave my mum alone? I am not always at home and will not be able to screen every call. I am worried about the damage this could do to my mum.
Any advice?
Thank you in advance.

Could you change her mobile number then that would stop any calls.

That is a really good suggestion I feel a bit stupid for not thinking of it Blush
however she does also turn up randomly.
I'm not sure what to say to her.
Thank u x
