[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do think that a lot of this could be a result of aging. Lots of our older family members were healthy and independent until mid 70s, and then they started having issues. At least in our case we weren't relying on them for support like you've needed to. But I think you're squarely in the sandwich generation now, where you have kids AND parents to care for.[/quote] Also look into FTD - it’s a form Of dementia/mental decline but doesn’t present like Alzheimer’s and forgetfulness. It’s not easy to get diagnosed but lying and loss of empathy are symptoms. [/quote]
