Hubby and I went to see his mother at the memory care center, and then took her out for lunch She was very pleasant and in a good mood and she didn’t complain about anything at any time She knew who we were to look at us, but she couldn’t tell us what our names were and then when I showed her a photo of herself like from a month ago, she had no idea who she was looking at in the picture But like it is for people with Alzheimer’s, it’s one day at home and today was a good day for her I always include a pink photo with my posts about my mother-in-law because her favorite color is pink

I’m so glad it went well.I hate hearing how quick it is progressing. How is your husband doing, seeing his mother deteriorate so quickly and severely?

I'm glad she has at least some good days. Now knowing who people are any more must be so frightening, a really horrible experience

It was a good day …..although she couldn’t remember names or recognise herself , she didn’t get upset or annoyed ….

Sounds like a really sweet visit, and I'm glad she had a good day. Even when the names slip away, it means a lot that she still knows you both by sight. The pink photo is such a lovely touch too.
