[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op: she's 75 and single. I was hoping that a diagnosis would lead to some type of treatment. Or give me an idea of how much help she needs. (She says nothing, but that's not true.) [/quote] There's no real treatment for Alzheimer's. IDK about dementia, but if there were we wouldn't be dealing with it on these levels. Let her have some control now. The decline isn't rapid. Control what you can right now, which means planning on your own, setting boundaries, etc. Enjoy being with her while she's doing well. It sounds like she wants to get through this anniversary, can you support her until then? [/quote]
