I admit, sending more and more glitter to wanders and her friend/family. Lots and lots of glitter. I admit, also sending new-fangled "clarity glitter" to dovie -- hope it helps and you get some answers! I admit, my grandma has been tested and tested and tested and nobody knows what's wrong with her. So we're thinking it's depression + her Alzheimer's that's causing this. She's eating ice cream on an empty stomach which just makes her lactose intolerance worse. The only one who can do anything right now is my aunt. My grandma is so skinny you can see her ribs now, which is scary to me -- she's never been that small, and I hope this isn't the beginning of the end................ She's excited about traveling for Thanksgiving, so we're all going to meet in the middle and have T-Day dinner somewhere. She'll eat when she's excited about something, or when all the remaining relatives are together -- at home she just gets depressed. I admit, I also never thought about cooking being a skill that takes memory until I read an article about anorexia in the elderly -- the article talked about how many of them forget to cook, but they don't want anyone to know it. I'm going to try getting her some little meals she can just microwave -- maybe she can at least get those. I can send money from up here so my aunt can go get them for her; that's at least something I can do. I admit, I experienced some nonconsensual napping, and now I'm way behind on the day.
