[quote=Anonymous] Most people would not suspect things are changing, but I am positive having gone through it with another parent that things are. Besides the memory things, I am seeing more anxiety and rigidity. One thing I did not see with other relatives with dementia is this parent is regressing to treating me like I am a teen or child. She is less respectful of boundaries and talks to me like a difficult teen rebelling rather than someone with a job and family. It's like the respectful adult relationship we developed and had for over 20 years is gone and I am talked down to and expected to obey this person who is not even rational. Parent refuses neurological and we have tried other venues (like going through other physicians).[/quote]
