[quote=Anonymous]My brother and I took my mom for a neuropsychiatric evaluation after about 3 years of gradual but noticeable cognitive decline accompanied by anxiety and depression. The results of that evaluation indicated that she has Alzheimer's, and it was the determining factor in moving her out of her independent living situation and into a more supervised environment. Having an actual diagnosis (as opposed to "oh, she's just getting older and is forgetful sometimes") is helpful when planning for an elderly loved one's care.[/quote]
