[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the response.  She and my dad have been separated for years, but still have a friendly relationship and see each other socially for a meal around once every other week or so.  I will ask him his thoughts, even though they get together relatively infrequently, but am somewhat concerned she will get annoyed if he tells her I asked.
She sees her sisters every few days, my son every day, and DH or I every day.  DH and my son are also concerned, but her sisters (one of whom is older and one of whom is younger) are not worried.  [/quote]

Maybe ask your dad to not tell her you asked because she got upset? Seems a reasonable request.

He knows her pretty well I would think, so definitely ask him if he has noticed anything. On a sidenote: THey are still friends after being separated and get together for meals??? Wow.

Im sure you will get other responses as the day goes on. Maybe others have observed similar things with their aging parents. I can say they DO change sometimes. My father is not the person he once was, and his mind is still very sharp intellectually, but interpersonally he has become very very different. Of course he is also 10 years older than your mom but these changes were happening back then. I would have to say more focused on the petty, GAWD...... now that I think about it.  Never thought of it that way before.[/quote]
