My mom resides in a personal care home. She receives restoril to help with sleep. We are finding that she still does not sleep normal hours with the restoril. It is given around 7pm and she does not go to sleep until 2-5am. She then wants to sleep about 5-6 hours which interferes with meals. She is normally pleasant until she goes to sleep, but sometimes hard to wake the next day. Has anyone else experienced this and do you have suggestions?

I am reading so much about people who has alzheimers have diabetes and if you control the diabetes then you have a chance of getting rid of alzheimers. This is completely against everything I have learned and did my medical classes report on. I know we all hope there will be a cure. Unfortunately I think research is grasping at air.

The person you have loved and was the most important thing in your life for 50 plus years and now there is a hole in your heart big enough to drive a truck through.
