[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 271111, member: 3388"] I'm sorry. Watching a loved one with alzheimer's is so hard. My father's mother had it. My grandfather was proud of the fact that he worked for the same company for all of his adult life. He never wanted to retire. When my grandmother couldn't be left home alone, he began working half days and having the neighbor's in their apartment complex check on my grandmother. It was so sad. She had no idea who I was. I had a very difficult time visiting her. Sometimes she was a bit more together. On those days, she used to think I was her daughter, my mother or one of her other granddaughters. I also really like the idea of trading a gun for a camera. I hope you find some way to make this work. Also, I think you're right - You have to find a way to make your mother in law realize that she needs to be home more. You can't always be available. For so many people, aging takes lots of strength and courage... Too bad it has to be this way... WFEN [/QUOTE]
