Why use the title Searching In The Mist for a blog? Especially one concerned with Dementia?
It’s simple really. Dealing with a parent or loved one with Dementia is much like searching around blindly, trying to find the right answers to all the unknown questions, and there are a lot of questions and unknowns.
You come up against so many obstacles and you search and search for the right answers, the correct way to do something and you’re never really sure if you are in fact doing the right thing. Sometimes the answer is a smoky silhouette just out of reach, or at least you think it’s the answer you’re looking for, you hope it is.
And then there are those times that there really is no answer, you just have to do the best that you can and deal with the consequences later.
In this blog I will get into the real life of being a caregiver for a parent with Dementia, and I’m sure there will be many times that I will be “Searching In The Mist”.
