Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / January 2007Purr request for an OT subject
We're having a rough time (again) and could really use some purrs to help us out of a major hole. I don't want to get into detail, but right now is not a good time for us. One bright note, however, some one at the VA has admitted that Rob has brain cancer and wants a copy of his treatment plan. In the bad news department, the neurologist and speech (and memory) expert think that Rob is showing the signs of early dementia. Pam S. scared and stressed beyond belief Our thoughts are with you, Rob and the all the Shirks - furry, bare and adopted-into-the-clan.

He's been throwing more tantrums, acting childish, and showing all the other signs of dementia that they told me about. We can really use the purrs though, it's one of those everything has to fall just right for us to just get by events.

Someone with a loved one in a similar situation once told me that as it progresses, it gets a little easier to deal with because they calm down as they become more accustomed and accepting of their mental state. I hope that came out encouraging, and not discouraging. Many, many purrs for you and your whole family.

I'm glad the VA is starting to wake up. Sorry the mind expert see dementia starting. The thing is, since no two cases like Rob's can ever be exactly alike, no one can predict what course it might take. My Dad developed a degree of dementia with his cancer as some of the cells invaded his brain. But it never got really bad. My parents moved into an independent living facility (both were close to 80) and everyone thought it was so loving that they walked around holding hands. My sister and I knew that it was as much to keep Daddy from wandering off as it was a sign of affection. And even with some possible dementia, Rob is still dealing with the loss of who he was as well as I'd guess a lot of medication. I know it doesn't make the outbursts any easier to take. But I hope it makes it easier not to take them personally. With both my parents the anger went away as they got worse. So maybe to a degree anger and temper are a good sign. Not that they aren't still very stressful. Purrs, love, and all the hope we can muster on the way. Jo Oh, {{{Pam}}}! hugs to you and the kids and Rob. I'm just now reading the group since awhile and I'm so sorry to see this post. Much love from us.
