[quote=Anonymous]PPs have good thoughts and suggestions. You say you’ve noticed this over the past few years; has she been more isolated over this time? Is she living alone? If so, for how long? Any other changes she’s been through, like retirement? I think if it’s early dementia, you will certainly notice other changes, especially if you are spending so much time with her. But it sounds like what you’re observing isn’t necessarily new, but rather a ramp-up of long-standing traits. That’s not unusual as people age, especially if they are living alone or socially isolated. And yes, pain and sleep patterns could be a part of it. Have you noticed other signs of cognitive changes? Is she repeating herself a lot? Losing words (this happens to everyone as we age, of course, for different reasons)? How is her health?[/quote]
