altzemiers
my grandmother and altzemiers(sp?) and 2 brain anerisms(sp?). she lives in an apartment attached to my house. its been ok but seeing the changes in her are getting really hard. she isnt far along w/ the altzemiers, so she still remembers who i am but she still could NEVER live alone bc of everything she does. but recently shes had MAJOR headaches and there probably from the anerisms. but my mom chose not for her to have surgery bc she would go through all that pain juts to come back and not remmeber. shes in so much pain and i cant do anything. i feel so helpless. just a little 14 year old girl who ppl just stare at sympathetically when they find out, but give no helps. does any one have any advice..im a little on the helpless side.

My Grandma's going through the same thing. She hasn't reached a bad stage yet, but she's getting there.
HOPE EVERYTHING TURNS OUT ALRIGHT

wow that just happened to my grandma too, she had the exact same thing but she had another desiese that made her loose her balence. thats really tough to deal with, VISIT HER EVERY DAY. take advantage of the time you still have with her when her altimers gets worse she might be able to remeber who you are, its also really hard because when it gets worse shes going to start talking about her mom and her dad and ask you about where her friends for like elementary school are and my grandma started hulusinating. just be strong and remeber her at her best and dont forget that she still needs you no matter how hard it is emotionaly on you --- good luck and if you want to know anything else that my grandma went through and how the stages go then just ask because id be more then glad to help! stay strong!

i'm 14 and my grand mother has very advanced alzhieners. it is very hard, but you might want to consider putting her in a home with nurses that can help her full- time. it will take off a lot of stess from you and your mom. as for the pain, there really isn't much more than asprin that you can do, sorry

Just gog sit with your grandma if you want to ask her about her past you should because she wont remember and shw should tel lyou now so there is someone who wwill remembver for her!
