I went up to my parents house, my my brother and off we went to the hospital to meet the Nurse in charge and social worker about Mum. Mum quite on edge and anxious. The assessment was as expected really, she needs nursing care with dementia. I went back on the ward and encouraged her to eat her lunch, then had to go to work. I had a bit of a cry on the way. My brother met me after work, and said Dad had thought we could have a live in carer for them both. (yesterdays carer had phoned the hospital and told him that Mum was doing really well!)I don't think it would be enough or appropriate care even if we could find an angelic super human who could take it on.
I went home and had a long bath as I did not know what else to do.
