Remember things change quickly!

My how things can change. We had a few good nights with the sleeping pills working, but it didn't last. It does cause her to become droggy, but does not keep her asleep. The pill is the generic for Ambient(sp). What has changed is with the time change and the progression of the disease she is now suffering from the sundowner problems. About 7:30 pm, she begins to wander throughout the house, sometimes rapidly, sometimes slowly. As the evening progresses she begins to have hallucinations. She will say things to me like, "I know what your doing", along with a look that could kill. I am generally just watching the TV. I offer to help her get dressed for bed, and to help her take evening pills and all of this gets done with quite a bit of teeth gritting, fist pounding and anger expressed. She has faller on at least two occasions at night, just bruises now. She has been up and down almost every night, sometimes getting into bed to stay for no length of time at all and right back up. This starts at bedtime and will continue most of the night. I do have a gate at her door so she does not wander the house. She will come to the gate, look for me and then back to the Bathroom or her bed. I know it sounds crazy, it is crazy. Last night I just ignored her standing at the gate. During all of this she makes no sense at all, totally out of it. Hard to deal with. I have to make some different decisions soon.
