Not a one off
Well it was not a one off. I’ve now had dementia episodes three nights running and I’m feeling worn out by them. Apparently it’s called Sundowning and it’s got something to do with my Circadian rhythms – which I have no idea about. All I know is that out of nowhere I become agitated and restless. I start panting and pacing and then start barking. Mum is trying everything she can to help me. The car is my safe zone and I do settle there. Mum went to buy a baby monitor so she could put me in the car and know that I was settled and safe without sitting out there herself. The problem is she got one that won’t do the job as it would need to plug in next to me and in the car there’s no socket. She’s hoping she can take it back to the shop.
Mum has also bought some Kongs and tinned food and yoghurt to stuff them with. She only put them in the freezer last night, so that it something we can try this evening.
It’s making us all feel a bit sad.
On a brighter note

On a brighter note, I did have a lovely day on Sunday. We went to an Entlebucher meet up and there were so many of us there that I lost count. It was amazing. I saw my half-sister Valeria and met lots of distant family I’d never met before. It was a totally awesome day.

I’m off to see family and friends today too, which will help cheer us all up. I’ve got some other exciting things planned this week such as going to my mountain on Thursday and visiting a puppy, which is always fun. Mum says we’re doing something really special on Saturday as long as I’m up to it, but I’ll wait to tell you about that.
Love and licks
