    i had a grandma with dementia, sometimes she would get very lucid and actually talk about how she knew her mind wasn't the same anymore. I'll never forget the time she told me and my sister she could see a beautiful woman sitting right next to me smiling, but she knew she was the only one that could actually see her

    To be honest, i'd be freaked out by a coat rack in a bedroom too. Like why is their a coat rack in my bedroom? Not to mention the shadow it is casting on the wall. By the way, this is not a "hallucination" if she is freaked out by the shadow on the wall caused by the freaky coat rack.

      I dont think I would go so far as to say its not a hallucination though. Because, to mom, the coat rack was still a real person when she came back in the room the second time. It's more about the inability for mom to interpret that this is not a person, but a shape that looks like one. Likely, if she could remember that the coat rack was there, she may have realized like many without dementia would have.

      Cr1mssy the point is that you treat what they’re seeing as if it’s real because it’s real to them
      In the first senario she brushed it off but in the second she took mum seriously, found the issue and rectified it. It can be hard sometimes to decipher what the issue is. In this senario mum is able to both vocalise what is wrong and be mobile and competent enough to come and seek help (for example) this isn’t always the case.

    For well into my childhood, like 12 or 13, I was creeped out by such things as weird shadows in my bedroom. I wouldn’t call it an hallucination, rather, lack of judgment. There was a chair with wooden arms that formed a shadow like a giant horse’s head with its mouth open over my crib. It happened whenever the moon was bright. I would lay perfectly still to prevent it from eating me until the moon’s angle changed and the horse disappeared.

    My grandfather recently had hallucinations about seeing ghosts and couldn't find his belongings. He thought that we( me and my brother) had taken it. Next day, when I was at the dining table, he came up to me and told me that he will burn the house down and said that "I've already searched all in my closet, all of the clothes had been taken out and put on the bed. Still, no money were found." Then he also said something quite worrying, he said, "I've already taken care of you guys since you were 1, why are you doing this to me". I assume that he think that we stole his money. Later then, I called my father for help, then he searched for his belongings and found it. 2 days later, while I was surfing RUclips, one of my brother came up to me and ask me to take care of grandfather. I talked to grandfather and one of his sentence was "it's no use, if you want it, then take it".
    What is triggering this hallucination. I'm quite worried that he will actually burn down the house. Help

      Talk to his doctor. There are medications that can help with some of the symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease. They dont cure it, but they basically help what's left of the brain function at its fullest. When the disease advances beyond their effectiveness, there's another that can help with combative tendencies. They aren't perfect, but it sure would beat having the house burn down with you and him in it.

    In my limited experience as a lay person working overnight in an apartment building for independent seniors it's best to acknowledge and deal with the emotional response first people are emotional first and rational maybe second. That does not get less true has dementia deepens. I find there's often a fixation on the perceived responsibility or threat. Even if you can distract them in their thoughts the emotions persist intend to just drag them back in the same direction. You're better off recognizing and acknowledging what they're feeling and focusing on changing the feeling rather than hoping bald facts will do that for you.

    Last night was the first time this happened. There were a couple of things that could have been triggers, but most of it was things that she was seeing out of the corner of her eye. She had cataract surgery about a year ago, and I think maybe poor eyesight could have played a part of it. But I need to learn how to better talk her through it and this helped a bit. I just pointed out the truth instead of appeasing her ( idk if that’s the right way to word it) and convincing her I made it better. Anyway, this is rough, thanks for the pointers.

    • @LouRadon
      @LouRadon 5 лет назад +5

      You need to get access to her online medical records. The lab work will show results concerning any blood irregularities or nutrient deficiencies. My Mom's doctors never addressed or even mentioned that her white blood cell count had begun to drop radically. Her immune system was compromised and once that happens, any number of internal complications can occur. Bacterial infections in the gut or brain, etc., lead to disaster as the brain is poisoned by toxins in the blood stream. My Mom was resistant, I had a similar situation. Some terrible health complications can be addressed with simple medications or even better, through dietary adjustments. Someone in the family needs to have your mother in law sign off on Medical Power of Attorney (if not full power of attorney) to begin advocating for her. She has to sign off before she is deemed mentally incompetent. She can still make decisions for herself but this allows her advocate to attend doctor/hospital visits with her to hear what is said. If her cognitive functions continue to slip, eventually someone will need to have POA and advocate for her completely. Don't put it off because once she is deemed incompetent, she can't sign a POA. POA can be officiated by a local Notary Public but it's best to have someone go over it with you and do it correctly. Look into "Durable Power of Attorney". Medical POA can be granted to you, without any other legal controls your family members may be concerned with. If they cooperate with you on these things, get access to her online medical records and look carefully at her lab results. Some of it is not so easy to figure out but any glaringly obvious issue may likely jump right out at you. Then you need to ask her doctor/s about those issues specifically and find out what can be done. Don't let them brush you off and if they make you feel uncomfortable, request another doctor immediately. I suggest all this because of my personal experiences with caring for my Mom full time and always being at a loss about what to do to help. Her doctors never mentioned critical lab results and made us feel small for seeking the help she needed.

      On Nov 3, 2016, I was told I will not be getting a kidney transplant because I have blood circulation problems. I live in the US.my wife have had Dementia and many miscarriages over 18 year's of marriage we have done everything possible in the medical field with no results.
      In my 20's , I developed venous statis in which the capillaries pop and my skin darkens on both my legs below my knees and above my ankles.
      I have a inherited kidney disease as FSGS and minimal change , two kidney disorders. At that time, there was no treatment for me because my blood was normal but I had proteinuria alot of it.
      My kidney disease didn't really getbad until 2006, then I was referred to a kidney doctor. He prescribed predisone. It didn't work on me. It was supposed to slow down the disease. But my problems befan to appear in 2012, when I started to gain weight, I thought at the time I was eating too much, but I later discovered it was excess water. Because later that year, my legs started to leak water. I actually had to squeeze the water out of my socks and trousers. Then I developed claudication which causes pain on my calf muscles in the back of my legs. I would walk a few steps and they would seize up. I would rest a few moments and the pain would go away. Then walk a few more steps and again experience pain.
      Then in February 2014, my kidneys finally failed and I was put on haemodialysis. Then I lost circulation in my toes, then gangrene then amputations in May 2014 on my left foot then my left leg below the knee in June 2014Then my big toe on my right leg, on October 2014, and theno the rest of my toes in Nov 2014.
      By July 2014, I lost 40 liters of of water or 88 pounds of water through haemodialysis.
      I thought since I had 20 other medical problems besides my 2 kidney disorders that I wouldn't qualify for a kidney transplant. Plus I have 47 chromosomes.
      But at least, I now know, I won't be getting a kidney.Unless someone invents a cure for poor blood circulation.
      Not every one who has a chronic kidney disorder will have the kind of problems I have had.recently I was introduced to a herbalist from China by a doctor friend from India, we have to fly from India where I went for the treatment to meet with the herbalist dr sale bashiru in China.just in about two months later I was cured of this disease with herbs and oil.and my wife was becme pregnant after using his herbs and oil too also. We are few years without pain and symptoms now.here is my email address if you need information johnlevison8842@gmail.com
