Mom has alheimers disease & a colostomy. How do you keep her from pulling off bag when she gets confused.

Hmm, that one is tough!  I wonder if there are any one-piece garments that may contain the bag a little better so she can't get to it easily.

hi there...does she take any anti-psychotic meds, like seroquel or risperidal or alzheimers meds like namenda or aricept? I'm not a drug pusher but I'll tell you, I've been caring for my mom for 4 and 1/2 years and I'm grateful for these meds...they have helped make the journey as pleasant and peaceful as could be, and were adjusted accordingly when behaviors changed and/or became difficult...I wish you well...
