Dad is 84. He doesn't seem to have any issues at all with memory and seems bright as a button - sometimes too bright!
But sometimes its as if he lives on another planet and has no concept or care for anyone else in the world. Hes turned very very stubborn, very selfish etc.
His behaviour can be difficult to understand at times. Hes a very hard person to help because hes so awkward.
When hes ill, I worry. He went through a phase of phoning 999, calling GP out etc. Both now refuse to come. He just would not agree with what they said to him.
I've spoken to GP about my concerns but they've done nothing. Especially when he was pretty much calling them every day or two.
Just wanted to see if dementia might be an issue to be honest.
