My mom has been in the early stages of dementia the last 2.5 years. She’s been living with my wife and I, but has been pretty capable. She stays by herself and our dog while my wife I work 3-4 days a week. She sundowns but seems to be able to overcome it when we aren’t around. Those are the only times I’ve seen her really confused.
Well, she just got Covid and is taking paxlovid. The virus hit her yesterday morning and since then, she’s had a serious regression and is lost most of the time. I definitely can’t leave her home alone in as she is.
anyone have any information regarding if she’ll stay in this state after the virus is gone or if she’ll regain some of it when Covid is gone?
Any information would be appreciated. As would any leads regarding Medicare dementia services. Thanks
