If you put them in the laundry, he takes them out and put them on! Dad Is 95. He lives an hour and a half away, so all I know is from my step-sister. She has tried all kinds of tactics and can't get him to put on clean clothes. She can't figure out why he does this. Anyone have any ideas?
Sometimes they don't have the strength to change, but that's not ythe case if he's pulling clothes out of the laundry. Does he have a favorite pair?
Dad doesn't have to pay for laundering: people in his senior building provide that service. My step sister even bought Dad another pair of pants like what he has and he said thanks, he already has a pair!
Oh well, the poor man is in tears this week because his wife had a Alz fit and has to be evaluated to see if she can stay in her home or not. I'm going to visit Dad Monday. He insists on seeing his wife in the home twice a day for the 2 weeks she is slated to be there. He doesn't drive anymore so he hopes to enlist family members to bring him there. It's so sad.
