She's having trouble doing stuff like just standing there staring at her closet but will not get dress. She did not get to the toilet and crapped in the floor in front of it. Just seat on the toilet looking around. Could not get her to clean it up or herself. Took me 6 hours to get her and the floor cleaned up. She got the worst of it up and I finished. Got her in shower and she seat on a stool and bathed. But still had mess on the back of her legs. She got out of the tub went to the back bathroom and seat on that toilet and would not get dressed. I finally got her to put on a diaper and sleeping top. She eating now but she's having good days bad days. Gonna take her to her gp Monday unless tomorrow is worse then er.
I know this will be tough, but when taking her to the doctors office or the ER, they need to see her when she’s at her worst. When you take her to the ER, as bad as this sounds, don’t stay there with her. My MIL began refusing to take her meds, wetting herself and denying having any issues when a doctor or nurse came in. My wife would stay with her and what ends up happening is a doctor and ER staff will send them home if they think someone will take care of them before finding out the extent of the problem. I convinced my wife to walk out of the ER once she was in a bed and her vitals were fairly stable, then the ER doctor and nurses had to deal with her denying there was a problem and refusing medication they were trying to give her. They had to call in a social worker and psychologist to figure out why and she finally ended up getting her admitted to a nursing home. Emergency rooms need beds and can get too focused on passing the patient off to someone that will take care of them at home many times before finding out there are more issues with the patient and being there with a patient can do more harm than not sometimes.
