Hello everyone.
I am new here and happy that I’ve found this forum.
My grandmother (81) was diagnosed with dementia a year ago and since then everything happened very fast.
In the last 3-4 months she definitely reached the last stage of the desease. She is incontinent, sleeps most of the time, speech has pretty much gone. She falls almost every day because she is still able to walk. The problem we are facing right now is that she is losing weight extremely fast. No matter the fact that she has three or more meals a day she is still losing weight. Last month she was 55 kg now she is 50kg. for less then a month she lost 5kg. Not really sure how much time she has left and what to expect.
