[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the mid stages of dementia my mom became paranoid and occasionally mean though mostly just self absorbed, and unable to empathize or think about others as she was consumed by her own unraveling. Oddly, in later stages she was able to express more love and appreciation even though her ability to speak and make sense had declined. Pleaser know this is normal in dementia although it can be very distressing. [/quote] At what age did you see this change begin with your mother? And how did you know it was a true change rather than her just reacting to things, like stress or bad luck? I’m asking because I’m afraid you are describing my DH.[/quote]
