Whistling Posted: 06-14-07 07:34am
The wife of a man with Alzheimer's Disease
has asked me is there anything she can do
about her husbands constant whistling. It
is ongoing day and night and is quite
loud. She is finding it very hard to cope
with it.

Maybe she can try to reirect him. Playing
a game of checkers if he is still able or
painting, coloring in coloring books.
Something that requires hands on. Hope
this helps.

She can try giving him some sugar-free gum
or sugar-free hard candies. Sometimes
this works with the "yellers". Maybe it
would also stop the whistling.
