[quote=Anonymous]Please ask the doctor to test your mom for a UTI if this is new behavior. My grandmother would get even meaner than usual when she had one. Also ask about medication--whether it's an anti-depressant, sedative, anti-anxiety, or something else...my grandmother lived in a state where the doctor could prescribe CBD and it really helped! Make it clear that even though you recognize all of these medications have side effects, especially for older people/people with dementia, you are willing to take the chance your mom's life is shorter if her remaining time can be calmer.
