| Please, I need your help. I do not one thing about dementia care, and my grandmother, 83 years of age, was recently diagnosed with senile dementia. What should I expect? What will her behavior be like? Should I consider confining her in an institution or not? I have to say that I love her, but I already have many obligations concerning my job and two kids. Give me some advice, please. |

| My father suffered from senile dementia. He passed away two years ago and I have to admit that his last years of life was not easy at all, for him and for us, his closest in spite of dementia care that we took. You were probably told that his condition will advance slowly, and that at point, he will require 24 hours a day help and care. Can you manage that? |
