[quote=Anonymous]My mom who suffers from dementia called me last night and ranted for 41 minutes about all sorts of random things. I didn’t stay long enough last time I visited her (I was there for five hours which is about how long I’m normally there, she was arguing that wasn’t true), she was looking forward to leaving her place for four days (no idea where that one came from), she didn’t know what day it was and thought I was coming over (that’s not totally abnormal) but the confusion and delusion was so much worse than it’s been all of a sudden. And she was fixated on things that she basically made up as truths. I’m speculating that the time change may be a contributing factor- she doesn’t normally have “sundowning” although she does get tired early, around 6 or so. But her fatigue doesn’t cause this incredible amount of confusion normally. Has anyone else experienced an uptick in dementia symptoms since Sunday?[/quote]
