Hi,
My mum is 62 and is suffering from constant memory loss.
She forgets the day, hour and recent events. For example she will regularly buy 2 newspapers within the same day.
Other examples include forgetting how to make drinks, as in she cant remember how many sugars someone has in there tea.
Earlier today I took her to the supermarket but sat in the car. I told her that we was on the left hand side of the shop just outside the canteen.
When she came out the shop she turned right and carried on regardless, happy as can be.
When I talk to her about it she gets abusive and just turns it on to me saying im fat, depressed etc etc.
She claims to have been to the Doctors but I think she is lying and in denial.
It is not only me that has noticed it. Friends, relatives including my dad and sister have noticed the same traits.
Any advice or thoughts would be useful. Am a little stressed tonight so if my desciption is vague, just let me know.
Thanks
Mike
