Guest guest Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 My mom is doing worse. the Dr. suggested Hospice. They came to evaluate her and they said that since she could speak and understood what we were saying she probably wouldn't qualify. I don't understand, she can not walk without assistance, she can't do anything without assistance, Her tremors are so bad she can't eat or brush her teeth. She is delusional, thinks dad is trying to hurt her, and she get upset if I'm not there. Has anyone else had problems with people not understanding about LBD? They think it is like Alzhiemers, with the memory problems, mom doesn't have that problem, but her symptoms are just as bad. It gets so frustrating. I don't know what to do. I would also like to know what to expect. All the DR's say is that there is no cure and she will go down hill fast. I feel like no one understands what I am going thru. I'm worried I can't do it but I have to because there is no one else except Dad and he is not well either. thanks for listening!
