Pretty sure mom has "Sundowners" I'm learning about it.
She had her second middle-of-the-night stroll last night after being the only one who heard a fire alarm, same as last time. At least this time she grabbed her purse and didn't get locked out.
She also cancelled her driver to the dentist today because her primary nurse called her this morning to say he would take her. He's in El Salvador this week.
I spoke with her back-up nurse who has lots of dementia experience and told her I thought mom was having "auditory hallucinations" and a couple of other things. She said she thought it was this sundowners condition. In reading through some of the symptoms, I'm glad she's only having the more benign ones for now.
