This is so sad. It’s hard to continuously monitor dementia patients unless they have 24/7 care in home or within an assisted living facility. Such care can be expensive. This sweet woman never intended on her ending result. God bless her and her family.
Love that sweet lady with all my heart but I feel like that sweet lady would have never just walk to the river and jumped in
The Father has made her new again in his kingdom, bless her soul, bless and keep the family in your care Lord as they struggle to go on without her…
Breaks my heart. With having Dementia, she probably wondered off, fell in the river and drowned. I took care of my mother for three years, and she had dementia, so I understand how this can possibly happen. Praying for the family and friends.
