Hi there my name is Chelle, I want to understand dementia how it affects a family. My Dad we think has Dementia early stages we think? My Dad is 78 years old and my mum is age 77, My mum has been struggling with the daily issues and tasks she is facing, my Dad won't tell us what the doctor says to him, and he cannot remember what's been said to him also. We think the doctor has done a checklist to briefly assess his health , and he is now awaiting a physiologist assessment, does anyone know if this will give us the results we think we know? My Dad is angry and sharp in his tone towards me and apparently he's always like this towards my mum. He just stares at me with a vacant look and he takes 20secs before he says hello Michelle, but some occasions he says my Sister's name. My mum has said he has had a few toilet accidents where he's missed or not made it in time, me and my mum think he's suffering with paranoia he has the doors open in the house and he will just walk in the kitchen and just look at us puts his hand to his head as though he's confused and then he walks out. But he will go in to his office and shut the door. We know this is going to get worse, my mum isn't good she has has high blood pressure and two bad knees so she is in pain alot. To throw another problem in to the mix, my Dad is still driving. What do we do, my mum is losing the will to deal with him. Thanks for allowing me to express my situation. Thank you 😊
