[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Absolutely mention it, OP. There are medications now for certain types of dementia. Doctors who don't keep up with modern breakthroughs may not be aware of this. My husband, a doctor, is less aware than I am about certain medical innovations. All her children need to be aware of your observations during her stay with you. That's just ethics. [/quote] I have told her DD. I have said it is her business not mine, but I felt I should let her know about the memory issues we witnessed while she was here because I was concerned these might leave her vulnerable in other environments. So. Done. Thanks everyone for input. [/quote] I think this was the right thing to do. You've noted your observations and concerns, didn't offer a diagnosis from you and Dr. Google, and now the ball is in her kids' court. [/quote]
