[quote=Anonymous]Agree that you should go and have some prolonged exposure with him to see what behavior he exhibits. My mom was doing the same thing while living in another state—putting off travel, etc. and then Covid hit. Her phone calls became very short, she said she “had things to do” and we are all thinking “what things?” I suspected something other than just her regular anxiety and my siblings told me I was being alarmist. I don’t know exactly what I was picking up on but something seemed off. Once I was able to travel I went there and it was clear once I spent even just 24 hours with her. Her memory was definitely impaired and she had been using strategies to try to hide it. It is easier to do with very short calls. Go. See for yourself. You will know. [/quote]
