I'm visiting my Grandmother in the hospital today and I don't know what the talk about. She is sick, so there is a low chance of starting up a conversation with her. She has brain problems, not autistic or downsindrome. She often yells at the nurses at the hospital. But they are really nice! What should I say?

Go in stand next to her and tell her that you love her let your feelings oout to your grandma this will be something if nothing else she will remember. Don't let any of those doctor diagnosis get in the way of you telling your grandmother how you feel. GOD has a way for your grandmother to remember everything that you have said it will play in her head over and over. Trust me. I been there with my mom and when I was talking to her she could hear everything that I was saying even thou she would not talk to the nurses she would talk to me. The sound of your voice will let her know that it is you talking to her they remember voices real well. So just tell her how much you love her, appreciate all she has done for you and that you will live the best life ever whatever comes to mind that you would like to share and tell your grandmother tell her now cause she does not have much longer. You can even say a prayer to GOD while holding her hand whatever you do she will be able to take that with her when she goes to heaven.

Thank the nurse of looking after your grandma. As for your grandma, sometimes silence is best. You don't have to talk with her when you know that she is not at her best. She's old and sick, so just be nice and helpful as you can.

Honey its gonna be hard to go in there and visit but do go. youll really regret not going if something were to happen. and dont worry about the nurses that she yells at they are probably used to it and it probably not the worst to happen. as for what to say..... just talk to her like you would if she was at home. tell her whats new in your life. even if she dont respond chances r she hears you. and would be appreciative that you are there.
good luck!!!!!!!!

That it's really nice to see her. She's looking better (hopefully she believes you). Talk about what's going on on the news (nothing depressing though). Family is always a safe bet. Good Luck. I hope she feels better.

say hi, ask about how she feels, what she thinks of the hospital....and keep quite let her do the talking if she wants. if she cant talk much, just tell her how everyone at loves her, and hopes that she will be well soon.
good luck

Maybe grandma has altzheimers. Chances are she won't remember what you said anyway. Try to be calm and soothing and pleasant, but not patronizing. Don't treat her like a child. Treat her with respect, after all, she deserves it.

Read to her. It'll pass the time, and you can leave the visit guilt-free.
