Mom was diagnosed with dementia about a year and a half ago but still lives at home, as it’s not that far advanced and someone is always with her. She walks…A LOT. Not to the mailbox or the kitchen, but aimless walking. I’ll ask her what she needs, and she’ll say “nothing.” If I ask where she’s going, she doesn’t know. What scares me is that she’s fallen 4 times in 2 months, and one of them broke her wrist. I got her Hipsters so she doesn’t break a hip, but the thought that I have to watch her 24×7 to make sure she doesn’t break a bone is freaking me out.
