Alzheimer's seems like a mystery stuck in a puzzle wrapped in an enigma. To sort of allude to Winston Churchill 's take on the Soviet Union.
A Right at Home worker took my Mom an Alzheimer's patient to get out once in a while a few years back. This worker was one of our best. This time they are at the Walmart on CR466 and at the checkout. My Mom for some reason starting yelling she was being kidnapped. Our worker left the items at checkout except for the one thing she had had time to get. They went out the door and were followed by a retired law enforcement officer in plain clothes. He demanded to know who the worker was. Anyone can claim to be a police officer so our worker said I do not need to give you any information. The retired LEO called the cops and our brave and brilliant worker called Right at Home. Right at Home called me. And they were soon back at home. I think Right at Home got the police turned back.
We have had a lot of workers from Right at Home who are very good at dealing with Alzheimer's patients. Some of the public seem clueless.
But I do get the impression that the medical community is only guessing about Alzheimer's. They really do not know much about it.
Some of the stuff that comes out of my Mother's mouth is hilarious. Some sad. Some tragic.
