Hi, My 87YO mother has a shocking memory She lost her husband of 57 years in March, but I know her memory was bad before then, it has just got worse with the shock etc. She cannot remember stuff and gets quite agitated when I try to tell her that she has been told something before. Minor stuff doesn't matter, but things related to my father's estate are really quite important!
She did agree to go to the doctor, but refused to let me go with her. I imagine that she was very dismissive when she talked to him, as she said he thought she didn't have a problem, so there is no need for tests.
Trouble is that she is very suspicious, now about me. She is starting to believe I am being secretive, especially about money. She thinks I am keeping things from her, which is not the case. She has been told, but forgotten.
How do I procede? Do I have the right to go behind her back and talk to her GP?
