[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does it matter? I am pretty sure my mom has dementia but since there aren’t really any medications that have definitely shown to help or any treatments what’s the point if a diagnosis? There a cognitive tests you can give your mom. I gave my mom one I think was called the Montreal cognitive something. I give it to her every six months and unfortunately can see the decline. It’s the one where part of it is drawing a clock set to a time like ten minutes past 11. [/quote] The point of a diagnosis is being able to get legal things in order. You can't just go get POA over someone that's deemed competent. That's elder abuse. [/quote]
