Hey Tony - I feel your pain as I went through Dementia with MY Mom who I lost 5 years ago and am re-living it now with my Mom-in-Law who has ALZ...
There is A TON of GREAT advice here - re-living her STRONG & HAPPY memories, pictures, take her to her old haunts and neighborhoods, Estate Planning, etc.
The long and the short of it is that ALZ sucks! It is an awful thing and at the moment - there IS "no better"...
Besides my best to you and your family, all I can offer is the title of a GREAT book on the subject entitled "The 36-hour Day." It is considered by many to be a Bible of sorts on the subject.
I got A LOT of help and ideas from it.
Stay Strong & Healthy - she needs you as her ROCK!
