Yep, been there, done that. You have my sympathy.
It's very hard to cope with and yes, you do find the strangest things to laugh at. My mum's things were the chocolate biscuits, the veering to the left and getting a room to herself because she was agreeing with the woman who thought people were going through her locker...

Hmmm. Care to elaborate (about the choccy bikkies, especially)

I'll explain fully when I see you soon, but basically she wasn't aware of of her left side and the staff at the hospital would insist on giving her choccy biccies. This was fine when it was in her right hand, but she forgot after she moved it to her left...
and as I had to do all her washing...
I had to extricate the choccy bikkies from her her nightie when I arrived and had to wash a chocolate covered nightie every evening when I got home.
It was funny at the time...

Oh dear... ::giggles despite self::

"I'll explain fully when I see you soon"
I look forward to it. (o:

LOL. As anticipated the nurse in the other bed s proving a great source of relief and amusement. Tonight we had a lengthy, detailed and involved conversation about 'House' through her curtains - just a disembodied voice; deeply amusing.
