Thanks for your concern. There is another drug that might be interfering with mom's mental functioning, one of the cholesterol lowering statin drugs. I might ask her doctor if we can try without for a month to see if there is an improvement. There is a lot of info on the net about this side effect, and the drug companies and FDA are apparently NOT taking this side effect seriously. A relative and a friend both had reactions to the Oxybutynin serious enough to send them to the ER....wonder they hadn't had that reaction, and the drug slowly dulled their mind so that they didn't notice the side effect. All this to help control peeing. For pete's sake.

It's wonderful to see you mother without these awful medicines, but also frightening to think about what some of these "drugs" can do with people...

I took my mother off Ditropan, and after 3 weeks or so, she improved her mental functioning, noticeable to me. Then I was curious last night and asked her if she noticed an improvement in her memory lately...and she launched into a speech about how a week ago, she suddenly WOKE UP.
She gave a whole speech, with words, phrases, sentences...paragraphs. After years of one syllable and grunting, and pointing. I stopped her speech and got out my camera and recorded it again. You won't believe it. 6.5 years of solo caregiving 24/7...and it was a damned DRUG SIDE EFFECT? I am thrilled, but also pretty pissed. More later. |

Love all of the nature video's. There is so much beauty in Gods' universe!
So glad your Mother can enjoy your trips out. I cared for my 92 yr old Mother-in-law until the end. It is an enormous job but the rewards are great. May God bless you! |

That's lucky for your mother. My grandmother is only 7 years younger and she's in great health, too, minus a bad knee.
I found your account via the video of your mom watching MTT conduct Mahler's 8th, and I've seen Aldort's channel before. I discovered his when I searched for some Dvorak cello concerto videos (LOVE that piece :D). |

Thank you for looking at the videos of my mom, and for "getting it." She's in good health and humor...just got thumbs up from her doctor a few days ago at her checkup. More videos to come! -carol
