[quote=Anonymous]It's Aphasia. It's really common in older people. Not always a sign of dementia, but it can be. My grandfather developed it at one point because he'd been living alone, only eating canned soup, and not interacting with others outside of routine check-ins (didn't need to converse off-script, so to speak). Once his diet was fixed, he was living with his daughter, and having to interact more with people again and maintain those skills, it improved. But like others have said, a neurologist is the best person to evaluate this and determine possible causes..[/quote]
