I had quite a distressing phone call tonight from my brother who is concerned about our father. He seems to believe that my father is exhibiting signs of Alzheimers.He's done some research (via the internet and with friends who have been in similar circumstances) and related incidents to me. I have also witnessed some of these incidents myself.
I do not live nearby and only see my parents occasionaly because of the distance and whilst I agree that if my brother is worried then something should be done I don't want to 'label' my Dad at this early(?) stage.
What are the symptoms?
How do we as a family find out?
Should we involve the GP?
Any help would be very gratefully received!
