Yes! She was able to call up the guide and move through it to find something to watch on TV.
I know this doesn't sound like much but for the last 2 years, I've lived my life in 30 to 60 minute intervals, all around the TV, my mom's only entertainment.
My mom has been diagnosed with moderate Alzheimer's. If you read past posts, even from just last week, you'll read about the insanity associated with Alzheimer's and the craziness that has become common place in our home.
Today my mom is doing fabulous. I heard a noise coming from her room a short time ago. I thought something was wrong... it wasn't, my mom was singing. She was singing along to a commercial. When I asked her why, she said, "Oh, I love that song."
Hypnosis... it worked. I didn't even make the recording yet. All I did was the pre-talk, I explained to my mom what I was doing and the phrases that I came up for her. I wanted to be sure I wasn't going to cause her any internal conflict. I didn't. It helped my mom to appear "normal", like she was before she lost her mind.
Ma ... she found her mind!
