I am here because I need help

[arpan7004]

Hi everyone,
Hope this finds everyone well.
I am from India. My mum is 66 years old and she is showing signs that she is forgetting things. My grandma (her mum) also had dementia and it deteriorated pretty fast. I am afraid the same thing might happen to her. I dont know how to give her the required care and what doctors to reach out to.
Please share some resources.

Hello @arpan7004 and welcome to the forum. The Dementia Support Forum is based in the UK so our information mainly relates to the services and help that are UK based. However dementia is the same the world over and I hope that you will find the above links useful.
I am also attaching a link to some information related specifically to India which I hope may be useful. Finally I would suggest that you also speak to your mum's doctor to discuss your concerns. I hope that this is of use to you.
