Are you out tomorrow Dame ?

brother visiting Baz...I am dreading it  One old dear is singing on top note 24/7 and swearing constantly, my head bangs by the time I come out 

Awww  It must take a lot of patience to work in those places ...I certainly couldn’t 

No,I couldn't either

tell you what Baz, this is the first time in 12 months I have seen the staff frazzled, I think they are finding coping with her exhausting. Not only trying to keep her occupied but to stop her swearing, hitting and annoying the other residents. She swears at me all the time. she called me a fecking pig last week..how do you take children in to visit relatives

Mr B hums or sings the same few phrases of a tune over, and over some days ...drives me mad ...I end up screaming SHUT UP 

Imagine having it more than some though Bazzy  

I know exactly what it’s like...plus I worked /volunteered in a home on the Alzheimer’s helpline ....not much I ain’t seen

this is loud Baz, really loud and apparently she's doing it all night up and down the corridor 

It’s a wonder they havent sedated her ...at least at night

 I wanted to do my bit ...but tbh I found it very draining ...

I wouldn't and couldn't volunteer for Alzheimer's, I know my limitations Baz. Even now my brother who was never violent can have some dodgy moment that make me sit up and be aware. 

This was just on the helpline ...but some of the story’s ...far too close to home
