I phoned mum to see if she enjoyed her outing, she said that she had a nice time but she didn't have any money left, so when was I going over, I told her that Teresa was going over tomorrow, and she said 'no she isn't'.
I phoned Teresa and she said yes she was going over and that she would check mums money and let me know if she had any left.

Phoned mum to see if she was OK, she asked me if we were going over today, I told her that we would not be going over until tomorrow, she said that she hadn't seen anyone for ages and that she misses me when I don't go over. I explained to her that she did see someone every day. Teresa had been over to her yesterday and Michael had picked Teresa up and had stayed for a while, she said was that yesterday it seems ages ago. She then said that she had been over to D's and she had already told her that it was Friday and we were going over to her tomorrow (Saturday)

When we got to mums she was in a muddle, I helped her find her bra and put it on, she said that she wanted to go up to the shops, I talked her out of it as there wasn't anything that she needed.
Helped her peg her washing on the line and then we all went over to D & D's for coffee.
Got her some lunch before we left.

Daph text me to say that mum had go to her at 10.30am for her lunch, after her lunch mum had said that she must get home to see to the animals, she argued with Daph when she said that she didn't have any animals.
Tuesday 18th May
We got to mums early, she opened the door to us and said that she had lost her purse, so we spent the first hour looking for it, I found it in the drawer in her bedroom.
Got her breakfast and meds and then helped her have a bath, the house was very messy today so had to do a lot of housework, she asked me to cut her toe nails but I couldn't do it and told her that she had an appointment to have it done.
We walked up to the village did her shopping and I did some lunch for us all, including D & D, we sat in the garden as it was a beautiful day.
D & D told me that they are both very worried about mum as on Monday mum arrived on their door step in floods of tears because she said that she hadn't seen anyone for a long time and she was very lonely. Bett had also phoned them and was also upset about how confused she was when she went into her.
Mum wasn't happy when we told her we had to go.
Wednesday 19th May
Teresa phoned me early evening to say that she wasn't going over until Friday this week. I told her that D & D and Bett were all very worried about mum, she was and has been more confused then ever and Dib had said to mum wasn't it time to think about going in somewhere that would look after her, mum said to her 'may be'.
Teresa had said that Michael had said to mum would she like to go and live in a hotel! Mum had said ' I don't know about that'. I told her that mum would love to go over to Michaels for a couple of hours some times, Teresa said that she would have a word with him on Friday. Teresa told me that she would phone mum about 10.30am in the morning, I told her that she should ring earlier but she said that no she would phone about 10.30am (hope mum is there and not gone out)
I phoned Daph to tell her that Teresa would be going over on Friday instead of Thursday in case mum goes over to her. She told me that when she came back from work, mums neighbour, Deirdre had called over to her she asked D if she had seem mum as she couldn't get in her front door when she had come back from the shop. Deirdre told mum that it would be best to go over and see Dib,
D was in the garden when mum got home so he didn't hear her, so they both went over to mum and mums back and front doors were both open and mum was sitting in her armchair, her shopping was still in her bag beside her chair, there were no keys in sight and D eventually found them in mums purse.
D put mums shopping away, they got her a cup of tea and sat her in the garden, they went over later and put the TV on for her.
D said that mums 5pm carer phoned to say that she couldn't lock mums back door, and that when she got there mum was in bed, she got her up and she had something on her top but nothing on her bottom half! She said to her 'Annie I think that you had better put something on!'
D went over and mum had closed all her curtains , D put her TV on for her, mum thought that it was morning and that she had been in bed all night!
I asked D if she would be with me when Social Services come on Tuesday to reassess mum and she said that she would
