Lewy bodies dementia

Hi Everone,

 

I am 27 years old. My grandma was just diagnosed with LBD (Lewy bodies dementia). She is 88 years old.This the most difficult thing that me and my family have had to go through. I feel like I have been on an up and down rollicoaster ride. She started falling down alot and she said that she was seeing ants all over her house.She started having hallucinations.That's when we had her put in the hospital.

 

 She was talking about family members that are no longer with us. She saying that why where standing there right next to her and talking to her.  Now she is in a nursing home because the doctor said that she can no longer that  care of  herself. Now she mubleing in her sleep and her speech is really bad.Half the time I can't understand what she is saying.

 

I have been doing some resarch on the internet about this discus and there is not much out about it. I have found really good online support group at www.lewybodydementia.org.  I now that me and my family are not the onlyones out there dealing with this discus.

Mild Autism

Quote From: marzydotes

I am very concerned for my Grandson who has mild Autism..He goes to public school. His speech still needs improvement, but over all he has made great strides forward.
Lately, he has begun soiling his pants or fully urinating during the day, even at school. He is going for therapy and put on a reward system.
Has any body out there been faced with this problem, and was it physical rather then emotional?
A concerned Grandmother

Hi Marzydotes,

 

I am a teacher's aide and I work with primary handicapped children. You said in your post that your grandson begun soiling or urinating his pants. Have you or his teacher's at school tried taking him to the bathroom alittle more often?

 

I think that is great that the school is using a reward system. I have student that I work with who used to have soiling and urinating problems in his pants. We finally figured out that we had to take him to the bathroom five times duren the middle of the school day to keep his pants dry.I use alot of positive reinforcements with him. If his pants are dry I would tell him good job on keeping his paint's dry and give him a treat or a hi five.

08/07 Torn Between Two Husbands

I saw the show today and I could not beleave that girl. She should not be talking to her ex husband while she is married to Brent.I think both of those guys should show her the door. They both seem like nice guys, but I think  thay desire someone that will treat them better then that.

08/13 The Dr. Phil House: Saving Grace

I could not beleave those grandparents. They are both sick people. The grandfather should be in prison for what he has done to that little girl. If that was my daughter I would have no contact with them and I would not want anything to do with them.

08/21 Anatomy of Abuse

First of all he should not be putting his hands on his wife or his children like that.  If she is violating a court order those children need to be taken away from her. What part of no contact does she not understand.  I think the grandparents should be taking care of those children. They look like very nice people. She needs to get a divorce and leave this guy. Because its not going to get any better. The only people I feel sorry are the children because  there mother is not protecting them.

Sad

I saw both of shows. I think Christy needs some serious help. If Law Enforcement and everyone else has said there is no abuse going on in the house then drop it and move on with your life.I would like to now what her husband thinks about this whole situation. I notest that he just sat there and did not say to much.

 

 Stacy I think you should go to the courts and get a no contact order put out against your sister and her husband. It will protect you and your family.

09/06 The Ex Factor

She needs to take her son and get a no contact order put up against her ex. She should not let any guy treat her and her son this way. Why didn't she call the police when he chocked her and threaten to throw the child over the fence. That's assault and child abuse. Where is her family in all of this. Why arnt they helping her.

11/14 A Daughter in Danger?

I saw this show today and I see nothing but red flags. This girl needs a wake up call. You should not be hiding a relationship from your family. When they got her back the first time when she ran away, they should have taken the computer away from her or put it in a room in the house were very one in the house could see what she was doing on the internet.  I think when she came home the first time her family should have gotton her some serious help.

 

Mother should have been checking in on her and seeing who she was  not suppost to be talking to. I don't think her family should have taken her to the airport. Her mother should have been checking her phone records alittle better to see who her daughter was talking to. At the age of 18 I don't think she understands how much danger she is in living over there. Think her mother needs to be alittle more on the ball with what is going on in her daughters life.

Internet Danger

I think she should show him the door. He cheated once on her and he will do it again. I think she got a restraining order against  him and that other woman because she probley thought that her children where in danger because she did not know what type person she was dealing with. I would not get a restraining order unless the relationship between them is really bad and not good for the children to be around him.
