I cook & clean. Let mom go to bank on city bus or get a couple items at supermarket. We live in the big city. Everything is close. She is assisted everywhere. She does not have to do these things. We let her feel useful .However, she will sleep 15+ hours at a time, although she still gets up to use the toilet when necessary. Likes to sleep listening to radio.

Interesting comment, Catjohn22, about dreaming possibly being a transition time. My mother also makes comments about her dreams, and then catches herself. I find it hopeful that the dreams aren't frightening. :)
