私のママは、70歳になる頃から認知症の兆候が見え始めた。その症状からハッとさせられたり、後になってわかることがある。介護は身内で抱え込んではダメ。できる限り、利用できるサービスに頼ってほしい。本人のためでもあると思う。身内だから見られたくないこともあると思うのよね。
My mom has started struggling with her dementia symptom since 70 years old or so. Her behavior sometimes makes us astonished or shocked. Sometimes, I happen to understand later the reason why she acted like that. You should not take it all on yourself – seek for help from anybody or professional services around you. Your mom or dad would wish not to be a burden on you. They would hesitate to be watched by dearest one since they cannot control themselves.
