Hi everyone.
I have notice the last couple of weeks that mum has been alot more tired and more confused. It seems that the more tired she is the more confused she is - is this normal?
She keeps a diary, goes out and sees her friends, but she also has rest time. But this week especially when I talk to her on the phone I am having to explain over and over what day it is, what I have been doing etc. She is happy, and every time she gets confused she turns round and says "oh my brain is getting worse". When she comes over on a Sunday to be with us and we have had lunch with her grandsons, she will turn round after and ask if one of them is here, or something like that, then we tell her that they are upstairs, then she seems to remember, she also does this with my sister and her children.
Is tiredness part of Alzheimers?
Is this mum getting worse?
Love
Michele
