A blog about living and coping with my mother who has FTD. There's only one thing you can do and that is to laugh now and then cry later. This disease has been part of our lives for many years now. There are good days and bad but as it progresses the bad days out number the good days so it is important to remember to laugh and smile.

Let me show you
Mother gets concerned about the strangest things. She made me follow her around the house while she pointed to different things. She pointed to the kitchen floor and since I'm fluent in dementia I knew she was on her home renovation kick and wanted to get new flooring for the kitchen. After this, she brought me upstairs and pointed to our extra flooring we put in the foyer and said, "It's so big; can I have it?" Of course I told her it was hers and she told me that she was going to do the flooring. This was short-lived. She quickly turned her attention to wondering if the people were out.
