We’ve heard of seniors who think there is someone spying on them.

There’s a gentlemen we know and love who is often convinced his neighbors are stealing his heat.

Mom insists on speaking in the garage so her neighbors can’t hear her.

Dad is pretty sure his caregiver is his Mother.

While many of these exhibited behaviors are harmless, we also see typical yet dramatic crisis.

Mom is disposing of her soiled undergarments in the trash can.

Dad is getting lost while running errands in the same neighborhood he’s lived in for 40 years.
