Dignity...

This the face of Dementia... Someone lets her dress herself in anything, they don't comb her hair, they don't push her glasses up.. and then they take her picture. She has beautiful brown hair naturally, she has nice clothes, and she has some sense. I am not happy when people take pictures of my mother with her hair a mess, and mismatched clothes as if to say here she is now. This is not my mother's way of doing things, and she should be afforded the dignity of someone helping her dress a little better, helping her comb her hair, or not taking her picture. The only good thing about this picture is that it is my smiling mother mugging for the camera and she doesn't realize how she looks.  I can see the dementia lurking and it is progressing. But I love her even if her clothes don't match and her hair is a mess... miss you mom .. the real you ...
