Default when does it end!

Not sure how much more I can take. My Mom has Alzheimers.....I work fulltime, she stays with me.

I am fortunate that I do have help to come during the day to help Mom.

It seems that Mom is sleeping all day. My helper didn't tell me this but to me it is obvious........I come home from work at she is widw awake and doesn't want to go to bed.

She comes into my room all hours of the night and wakes me up because she can't sleep and wants me to sit with her.... I HAVE TO WORK!!! she doesn't understand that. It's not her fault ,I get that. But I am getting NO SLEEP!

I have told the "helper" to please keep her busy during the day. Go for a walk suggest she do some gardening ( she used yo love that ) we are in Florida she can garden all year. the "heloer" says she keeps her busy......but I don't believe it.

On the weekends I take her for walks get her out in the yard to do "work" I keep her out of her chair.....she needs stimulation, not sitting in front of the tv dosing all day and up all night!!!!! BUt i have to work.it is soooooooooooooooooo frustrating!!
