[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately I did have a relative who behaved similarly in the early stages. [b]The early stages magnified personality traits that were already there. [/b]She was always frugal, but then started not being able let go of things like a half finished can of soda or a couple spoonfuls of food, etc. Also, [b]even though she was normally self absorbed it became almost like she could only think about herself. [/b]It wasn't until years later that she started having memory issues. In retrospect, I think early signs were her losing the ability to have sound judgement and [b]empathy -- which admittedly she wasn't great at even at her prime.[/b] I hope you can get a neuro evaluation, but it sounds like it will be tough if she refuses.[/quote] +1 [/quote]
