Finally I don't feel alone , after reading some of your post , my mom moved in 6 weeks ago , before that i had her living next door where i could watch her everyday for the last 5 years . Then we found out she had RA , The last 3 years the doctor told us she has , alzheimer , now she has started with Parkinson also . What i,m wondering is if anyone has some of the same things happen to their loved one as i'm going through with my mom . She does good for a week are two then goes into a semi coma like, where we can't wake her , were we have to feed her with a feeding sringe , because she can't feed herself , which with the parkinson , she can't feed herself much anyway , she is also unable to walk because of the RA . Has anyone of your loved ones had this happen to them . And if so what is happeing , the doctor told me it is just the alzhiemer getting worst , and if so what can i expect next . You know sometimes on the good days i find it hard to beleive she has this horrorable thing , because she seems to know who i am , it makes me so sad , too sad to cry even , i get up at night and check on her as if she was my baby instead of my mother , at times i feel totally lost . Thank you for listening .
