Tell her when she is better. It’s a white lie because she won’t get better and eventually she will think of the care facility as home.

That is a hard question really, all depends of how advanced the disease is, how soon she forgets, is she attached to anyone in particular that she may feel abandoned. There are a myriad of issues to consider. And yes they will get attached to the new place and sometimes to a one person in particular, whomever take care of her most often in a daily base. Also how you and the family will feel or react when you go and visit and she will not know who you are and maybe even refuse to see you because she already forgot who you are. When you move her, ask what items she can have and take the things that will make her most comfortable and more important..VISIT and check on her frequently, make sure she is kept well and not mistreated. You may have to take turns with other family members, but keep checking, This places if they see that you show up frequently without notice, they will do their job and keep them clean and in good conditions. Good luck and take care.

Loenard- Nice save RE: "when you get better." Excellent use of diversion and redirecting.

She just might forget about going home ? My wife forgets so fast now it's ?

We never put her anyplace do this is such a hard thing to do. Prayers coming your way.
