[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dementia impacts short term memory first. So he might not retain info you shared today, yesterday ad last week. You husband’s long term memory is a little fuzzy. That is different.[/quote] There are different forms of illnesses under the umbrella of “dementia “. FTD (re Bruce Willis) affects behavior and language, Alzheimer’s affects memory, , etc. When My grandmother was 85 one of her first signs that we noticed was that she casually mentioned that some young ladies that she didn’t know came by her house asking for food. We thought it was odd but She was so believable. My grandfather was adamant that they didn’t come and that he’d told her a hundred times. :( [/quote]
