Hi, very new to all of this- my mum has been referred to a memory clinic next week as my sister and I (we both live over 3 hours away from her) had noticed she wasn't herself and is very confused and muddled. We have found a great lady who helps with household jobs, shopping etc which seems to be working and she is already in sheltered housing but Mother is insistent that she can still drive, albeit just within her village. I understand by law we have to inform DVLA (if she gets a dementia diagnosis at the clinic) but when we broach the subject of her car with Mother, she gets cross, upset and angry which is so unlike her. Any thoughts on how to deal with probably stopping her driving as we are sure she is unsafe? She's 83, been driving all her life and has a top of the range newish small car!! Finding it hard to deal with everything, especially from a distance as the mother I love is disappearing before my eyes.....also what happens at the memory clinic-I shall be taking Mother.
