My Dad, 88, has not been diagnosed, due to his unwillingness to go to the doctor.
I've had concerns for at least six months now, and his signs are getting worse.
In addition to memory issues, and repetition of conversations, he seems to hallucinate visitors and people staying with him...
When I speak to him on the phone, sometimes I humour him, and sometimes I correct him. If he is talking about my mother, who died two years ago, I have always corrected him, since I thought it inappropriate for him to think she is still alive.
So, what is best for him?
