My Dad died 4 weeks ago, which has left my Mum living on her own in a retirement bungalow where they moved to 7 months ago. She has early stages of alziemers, which is really hard. I take a day off a week with her and see her weekends and evenings. My sister helps as well. The problem is, is that everytime I talk to her on the phone she keeps saying she is lonely and bored. All her neighbours have said she can go round anytime, and also there is a community house where they do things like outings, coffee morning etc. One minutes she wants to go then the next she doesn't. It is so frustrating, because I can't be with her everyday. I don't want to get angry with her because she has alzeimers and that would upset her. I feel so guilty for not being with her. What should I do?
