Guest guest Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Hello all, I'm relatively new to the group but have just lurked. I joined for several reasons. I suspect my mom ( & possibly her twin) is in the early stages of dementia, & I suspect LBD. Of course I can't get either of them to the MD and I live close to 2 thousand miles away. The second is I'm involved with patients with dementia and their families at the hospital where I work, several have been LBD. If your dad is having difficulty with his swallow I highly suggest you get him tested via a swallow evaluation to see if he is aspirating the food. There may or may not be exercises he could do since he in the late stages, but you may be able to learn some techniques that may lessen the risk of your dad aspirating. Please let us know how he does. I also want to thank you all for sharing your lives so freely for those of us who are still learning. Jan in NC, USA Message: 15 Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2004 18:35:22 -0000 Subject: swallowing Hi, I'm new to the group and grateful it exists! My dad suffers from LBD -- relatively advanced. My mom is a full-time caregiver. She recently told me my dad is keeping food in his mouth after meals and doesn't realize it. He forgets to swallow and can keep a little bit of food in his mouth for hours. Of course - we're worried about the choking hazards of this. She's checking his mouth now after every meal, but she's worried that's not enough to prevent him choking. Does anyone else in the group have other tips or things to try/consider?
