Yikes @Shaz51 can see that you might be whipping up another batch of scones in the morning so there is no prior opportunity for consumption prior to morning tea. The twin once ate a nut roll I was saving to give to someone in one sitting.

Hello and hugs @Former-Member , @Jacques , @Ali11 , @Bunniekins , @Adge , @Former-Member , @Determined , @outlander , @Appleblossom , @Owlunar , @Faith-and-Hope

cleaned mum`s house today and did other jobs for her

Mum is thinking she is repeating herself all the time -- keeps saying she is losing it and wants me to tell her if she has asked me about the same thing

Been pureering our dinner for her == like tonight we had fish cakes , so i have purred some for mum

I don`t want to tell her she is repeating herself

and the stories she tells is what her sister has done in her life , not her life xx

@Shaz51

It is so hard when our dear Mum's lose some of their short term memory. Sounds like your mum is aware of what is happening (as my mum is) and I often use a bit of humour and say something like "Mum you're having a seniors moment again, you've already let me know ..." If you raise these senior moments she might be more amenable to go to the memory clinic.

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

yes , mum says " ohh I have told you that didn`t I -- only a couple of times mum @Former-Member

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

Hi @Shaz51 you are giving her a wonderful, dignified old age, you are giving her your all and I'm so so proud of you for doing it.
