Caring for my mom Member since December 29, 2008I moved my parents into a good nursing home mid-July 2010 after they had lived for 5 years at an assisted living. They needed to be watched and cared for 24/7. My dad passed away about 3 weeks ago @ age 93 mostly from end stage Parkinson's Disease and also from Dementia caused by it. Now my mom is exhibiting more and more strange behavior and I am concerned she is not eating enough to get by. She has stopped swallowing after she chews her food and spits it out..wondering is this a swallowing problem or a mental issue. She takes off her clothes and Depends which causes a big problem and I am looking to find support here and advice too.
