She forcefully insisted that I call therapist to see if she came to moms door this morning. Some woman came to door and rang bell. Mom was lying down. By the time brother got upstairs and to the door she was geting in her car. Mom afraid it might been therapist. She missed appointments because of blizzard. Then therapist broke her toes and canceled. Mom cant hold phine for long csuse if pain. Brother wont talk to strangers. So mom asked me to call.
Told mom the therapist would call me before comming. So I could call her to tell her when shes comming. That she wouldnt just show up. Mom kept insisting I call to be sure. No she doesnt have any dementia at all. She has GAD and O C D.

I did the dumbest thing today. I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds. I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym. What a dummy!

The physical therapist always calls my home before she goes to mom. Then I call mom to tell her when the therapist is coming. I understand the anxiety. I have it also. But meds and therapy helped me. At moms age the drugs dont work as good. And in all the years of her therapy she wouldnt work. She expected the therapist to fix her problems.
It's hard when a person wants someone else to "fix" what's wrong with them. It takes hard work, determination, and time to help make it work better.
Best wishes.
