Ellis Amber Cummings :: 62 :: Kate Burton :: Dementia/Alzheimer's Patient
[/size]The History
Ellis Cummings is a 62 year old woman who is Kaiden Cummings' grandmother. Kaiden was raised by her grandmother from the age of 16 when she decided to move out of her dad's house. Since Kaiden was 3 Ellis had been fighting to get full custody of Kaiden, knowing that her son in law was being abusive towards the girl. Ellis was 50 when her husband died from a heart attack, and 49 when her daughter died in a car crash.
When Ellis was about 59 she started to show signs of Dementia, and by 62 she forgot completely who she was. Before getting Dementia, Ellis was an amazing surgeon, and had a nice house. Kaiden had to sell off just about everything they owned to be able to help pay for bills and medical bills, so they now live in an RV that Kaiden bought

The Details
Ellis has dementia and Alzheimer's disease, which means that her memory is just about completely gone. Ellis has her moments where she can speak and knows what she wants, but other times she stares blankly at things. Kaiden keeps the TV on during the day to keep her grandmother company, but since her grandmother doesn't even know who Kaiden is half the time Kaiden thinks that the colors keeps her distracted. Ellis has her moments of being lucid, but those are going away quickly.
When Kaiden get's pregnant she is going to start questioning putting her grandmother in a home so that she could be cared for. About six months after she gives birth she's going to realize that its too dangerous for her growing family to have her grandmother there when she finds her grandmother trying to cook and catches the kitchen on fire.

I realize its a lot to ask of someone to take on a character like this, but I will leave a lot of things up to the RPer and the age is changeable and so is the face claim. But if you do take her I will make a ton of graphics for you, and you can come up with more details for her. Also if you want a complete crazy character, this is a great possibility because she can be as crazy as you would like her to be.
