[quote=Anonymous]Dementia can present differently at different times so be prepared for the condition to change, but you should absolutely visit. My kids saw my FIL as he died of dementia and he had some rather scary behaviors that didn't phase them. The visit should be fine, but just remember one key to dealing with a dementia patient is to never try to correct or criticize them. Not sure where you're staying but I'd recommend not staying the same house as your grandmother. [/quote]
