My Mother is 86 years now and suffers from Al/s. Mom spends 22 hours out of 24 in bed every day, stating its easier on Her bottom. I try to keep Mom's bed tidy also Her bedroom, but lately I'm noticing that Mother is pulling out all of the bed clothes. Where I would tucked them in. It seems every time I enter the bedroom Mom's bed resembles a war zone ??? It's as if She's wrestling the clothes. ID LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS IS USUAL BEHAVOUR FOR AN ALZHEIMER'S SUFFERER ?
Fidget quilts can sometimes help focus the restless energy.
She loves pictures that I hang on her closet door or wall, but sometimes, I will find them crumpled up in her nightstand drawer. She has no idea why they are there. It's safe to say that she or her roommate are responsible. She would not do this if she were thinking clearly. Before she went into Memory Care she would stack up things on the counter that made no sense, disconnected the cable box and placed it in the kitchen cabinet......there is no rhyme or reason to this behavior.
If she appears to be anxious, I might discuss it with her doctor. I don't think there is any way to know what is causing it.
