[quote=Anonymous]You can call her doctor and share your observations and concerns with them. They likely won’t be able to discuss anything with you but hopefully will recommend the tests for dementia as part of her next check-up. You may also want to get a geriatric care manager to help guide you through the next steps and help you deal with your siblings when it becomes necessary. Try to keep an eye on your Mom’s finances if you can because that’s one of the first things that goes with dementia — if she’s always paid her bills on time and balanced her checkbook, you may notice that she doesn’t do the math anymore. She can start missing the due dates bills and become vulnerable to scammers. Make sure she has her will, power of attorney, etc. set up. Good luck, OP. [/quote]
