[quote=Anonymous]My dad is 66 and the covid years were hard on him. He lost a lot of confidence and his social life is non-existent. My mom still works full time and is very social, but she’s really his only contact. I’m visiting for the holidays with husband and young children. We rarely visit because I emigrated to join my Australian husband. It’s been lovely to spend time with them but it’s so sad to see the change in him. He’s unsure of himself when driving, can’t follow instructions, keeps telling me and husband things we already know / stating the obvious. He has untreated anxiety/depression and also refuses to deal with his substantial hearing loss. At his age, is this something that might improve? It seems to be so young for dementia though clearly that’s a possibility. I’m trying to work on him to get him to accept a hearing aid, but I feel too overwhelmed to work on anything else. [/quote]
