Mom is now repeating almost chanting" Maryjane", which is not my name or calls out constantly for "mom". Anyone else dealt with this?

My mom is quite advanced and does sometimes call out "mom", and I answer her as if I am her mom. It seems to comfort her and relieves her wondering who I am when I say, "Hi Mom!". She'll be so bewildered and ask 'Who?". Works for us; she's even called me "Daddy" and "Grandpa"! I do love it when she knows my name or calls me honey and sweetheart; golden nuggets! Best of luck. ♥

Mine calls me Mom. It bugs me and creeps me out a bit. But I guess thinking I'm her Mom is better than constantly calling for someone who can't be there.

I am glad to say that my Mom hasn't started that yet. But I want you to know that I feel your pain, every day there seems to be a new challenge. Someone on this site will have experienced this just hold on they'll respond...
