My son's mother-in-law had Altzhiemmers and she was that

way. Couldn't stand to be left alone. Thought people were

stealing her belongings; who ever was with her was followed

so close behind she would nearly knock them down from being

bumping into. her daughter couldn't even go to the bathroom

without Big Mamma following her, or for that matter anyone

else if left with her.

It is very sad. I would that I knew something to help.

Perhaps if you explained what is happening to her health

care proffesional who might be able to suggest something to

calm her down and alleviate her anxieties. When I get too

up-tight i take a couple of Kava Kava's. Not too often,

though as it is a diuretic and i subsequently wear a path to

the little room in the back! God Bless and good luck.

Love.. Lee

First piece of advice is to disconnect your phone at night ;o)

Your Mom should be on the Total Nutrition Formula (The Dragon Snot Recipe).

At her age, this would go a long ways in straightening her out.

The Nerve Sedative Formula should handle the anxiety, but she needs the TN to help her body to correct itself.

Love,

Doc

[herbal remedies] My mom is driving me crazy/Ian Shillington?

I am hoping that Ian can give me some advice. My mom is 89 years old and suffering from vascular dimentia. She lives in an assisted living residence. She takes Five Flowers, an herbal remedy for anxiety. I found this with the help of Safe Harbor about six months ago when I took her off the ativan my sister had put her on. Now, my mom is getting belligerant. She wants to move. She is not being abused, she is bored. I found her a caregiver to take her for drives every day to get out. This is entertaining for her but as soon as she gets back to her apartment she calls me and tells me to come and get her or that she wants to move. She calls me in the middle of the night. Any advice?
