Mom (lives W Us)keeps Saying To My Wife That She's(my Wife) Is Going To Leave. I Try To Tell My Wife Its Not Her Talking Anymore, She Argues
With her instead of letting it go or change the subject. I don't know what to do anymore.
The 36 hrs a day book suggested not going one on one. And I think it works. My wife will ask "When is Mom coming home?" and I would say "She died years ago" and that would upset her. Now I say "I'm not sure. Lets wait and see" I felt bad at 1st but after 2 minutes it is all forgotten! Might try something like "Oh, alright dear. Let's watch some TV (have supper, have some tea etc) and talk about it later."
My Wife Believes Her Mom An D Aunt Are Alive. She Wants To Visit And Says I Do Not Understand.
