My grandpa is in the last stages of this terrible disease and it is terrible. My grandmother is at the point where she can't take care of him on her own anymore. He wakes up in the middle of the night and wonders around the house. One night he took the ice maker tray out of the freezer and tossed it on my grandma while she was sleeping. Some nights he will just stand in the living room staring off into space.

He is the same way. My mom and her siblings have to give him showers. He has to wear diapers and was going days without changing them. What makes it worse is he is very combative. (even before he was an abrasive person)

My dad was trying to help him in the bathroom the other night and he slammed the door on him smashing his foot in the door repeatedly. I went to my parent's house the other day after work and my mom was already sleeping from being up with him the night before. Both of my parents are still working so it has been really tough.

No nursing home wants him due to his combativeness. I do help when I can as we all live in close proximity to each other. My mom set up ring cameras in their house so that they can keep an eye on him at all times, but don't have to be there 24/7.

The other night he slid out of his recliner and was stuck on the floor. We were able to see it all happen with the cameras. My parents were at my house at the time so I told my mom I would go help him get up. Later that night he was awake sitting in the same chair, drops the tv remote and he gets on the floor on all fours to get it and gets right back up with no issues. It isn't that he can't get up on his own, but he forgets that he can. He calls my poor grandmother names, accuses her of sleeping with the neighbor, fat bitch, etc. It is terrible and do feel for you.
