Senile dementia
Posted by peanut on Thursday Nov 20, 2008 Under as a med studentNo my patient do not have the disease mentioned above. However, one of the auntie in the ward that I’m covering now has bad memory.
Our conversations are actually quite ok except the fact that she keeps on repeating that ’she’s old’ and I gotta reassure her that I know that she is old. But the same statements will be repeated and again I will assure her that I do understand that she is old.
It is slightly less severe than the video shown below.
For those that can’t understand Hokkien and have problem reading the Chinese subtitle down there, Grandma here is keep on asking her son whether he had his meal already or not =)
Luckily she doesn’t repeats something bad like ‘Don’t come and talk to me!’ endless time. Pretty active and cheerful lady indeed. Hopefully she got discharge anytime soon. LOL. IRONY.
P/s: Vivien told me to watch this Youtube video, a serious joke! Thai ads again, you gotta admit they are better! No wonder the hair needs to be like that.
