Imma you can care for your Dad without shaming him online. And if he can't shop for himself then it was obviously you who bought him so many sweet things.

She's probably jealous that she can't pack that away in her thumb tum.

She mentioned yesterday that she took him grocery shopping - surely she should be loading his trolley up with fresh fruit and veg and not so much sugar! 😳
 
Christ, Emma. 🤦‍♀️ I just put "sugar alzheimers" into Google and this was the first result.


Maybe don't stuff him full of cake?!!?!?!?!?!
My Grandma has a proper sweet tooth and would eat cakes all day if she could - we always joked she had shares in Mr Kiplings! My Aunty and dad had to force her (nicely!) to eat a ham sandwich or even just some toast etc. And even in her care home the staff say she’ll just nibble at any savoury foods but devour the sweet stuff. It does come to a point where as long as the person is eating that it doesn’t really matter what they’re eating, as long as it is something. I think keeping a low sugar diet helps keep the disease at bay but once it’s set in, it’s a case of just helping the person to get through each day in the easiest ways possible. If that’s a plate full of cakes then so be it. My grandma would have a cup of tea and a biscuit or a cake then forget five minutes later so would make herself another cup of tea and another cake - but it was getting crucial calories in to her to keep her functioning.

NO NO NO!!!

Alzheimer's disease is unofficially known as type 3 diabetes! It is hypothesised that the major cause of dementia is insulin resistance. The cells of the brain just cannot get the energy from glucose so begin to die.

Imma, please...PLEASE, as someone who is qualified in this area, encourage your dad to eat a more nutrient-rich diet and, where he can, drop all those refined carbohydrates. The Mediterranian diet is a perfect diet for him, encourage these foods...not a plate full of cakes!

Why is she not cooking him something?! I just don’t get the logic, recognising its bad but instead of helping she’s shaming him online.

A smoothie, sweet yoghurt or a cake after a meal. Poor man isn’t getting any nutrients and probably feels awful.
 
Is that a jam sandwich? For an adult’s lunch? That’s a massive sugar drop later on, and quite probably a headache that he may go looking for tablets for. Does he at least get a decent cooked dinner later?

The outfit is terrible and she’s clearly not doing any housework in a white dress. My daughter wore tights like that when she was 2.
 
I know there’s issues with Katy but I find her so much more genuine than Emma in so many ways! She seems like a much kinder person than Emma ever could be.

HA, no

She shouldn’t be posting photos of him if he doesn’t have capacity. It could make him vulnerable to people who live locally and now know he lives alone and is vulnerable.

She cannot get Lasting Power of Attorney as that requires him to give consent to her being his LPA.The only way she have any legal say in his matters is through applying through deputyship through the court of protection if he doesn’t have capacity. However there are fees for this AND she would have to submit an annual report to a guardian to show what she has spent money etc on.

She may already have it. You're meant to get it before they deteriorate anyway

Not sure we should rely on a woman who probably thinks veg on a pizza counts as one of your 5 a day, to help him in the food department.

She said Tony was making a Hello Fresh dinner the other night, I'm going to very generously assume they have opted for the 2 person box, up it to 3 and take the extra plate round the following day for him.

I'm really starting to lose my cool with her today. She is unbearably frustrating. This whole situation screams for-the-'gram. She's not doing any of this for the right reasons.
 
Caught up on Katykickers stories, such a challenging time for them :(. I am SHOOK at Emma's timing with her announcement of her dad's illness, when he's been diagnosed since 2019. Why am I not surprised. Can anyone confirm which came first, Emma's charity fundraiser or Katys story about doing one?

Katy put her story up 4hrs ago and Emma’s 2hrs ago. Coincidence much 🤔 Emma’s such a witch 😡
 
There is no way that Emma doesn't already have control of her dad's affairs. She won't have missed that one. I don't believe she is as upset as she is making out. She's just updating all her socials for pity instead of knuckling down and getting organised to make her dad's life a bit easier. There'll be a new wish list before we know it. Still fuming about the white dress and crap lunch. For god's sake put a pair of jeans and a jumper on and get on with it.
 
Emma has only starting discussing her Dad because she has caught up on Tattle. She is scared she will be reported and is looking for ways to justify her nasty lazy sickening behaviour.
Thumb tum and mental health aren't going to get her the attention she wants.
So she has to be creative. Hence why she reads, thinks of how she can "prove us wrong" et viola. Emma is talking about how hard it is for HER to have a father with alzheimer's.

Emma is never held accountable, seems to get away with everything and continues living this pathetic excuse of a life 🤷‍♀️
