I have unfortunately had a lot of dealings with Dementia in my short 30 years of life. However, until my wonderful nan who is more like a mum to me was diagnosed with Alzheimer's this year, I have never found it harder to deal with than this. I could fill this page with wonderful things to say but words won't be able to convey the love I have for her as I'm sure everyone here will feel the same. Anyway. She had heart failure 6 years ago, has a vitamin b12 deficiency and has had depression at some points throughout her life. I have been researching this and apparently these things separately can lead to misdiagnosis of AD. Now imagine they are combined. Surely this could be the case here!?! I have taken this information to her and she says she feels this could be true also and has already spoken to my (also wonderful grandfather) and Monday she is going to speak to her doctor. Now I am aware we could just be in denial, but I am also aware that this COULD be what's happened I just worry I may have given her false hope. Have I made an awful mistake? How could I have slept at night having this information and not doing anything with it!?! I am so excited by this and can hardly contain myself but I am trying to keep a sensible head on. :-(
