[quote=Anonymous]Yes. My father has dementia and perseverates on the past and his grievances constantly. He seems to remember emotions associated with people but not the people themselves. I have a hard time being around him because he gets confused and thinks I am 20 years younger than I am when he sees me. He accused me of moving in with him when I visited my parents for the weekend for Easter. He thinks I am moving back home after college (which I did for two months after graduation decades ago). I try to avoid him so he doesn’t experience those emotions. As his dementia is so much further along, I keep my distance more and more so my mother has an easier time with him.[/quote]
