[quote=Anonymous]Another PP who is guessing dementia but I can be more specific: primary progressive aphasia. Read about it but this is what my parent had. Slow loss of speech and fluency. No strokes at diagnosis. Started with in office paper and pen memory test then referral to neurologist. Was able to drive for at least one year and carried a wallet card explaining that verbally could fully understand what was being said but lacked ability to respond in an understandable way. Also: an MRI can be helpful:telling. I’m so sorry.[/quote]
