Hi, I have decided to visit this forum as i am not sure or not if my grandma is suffering from some form of dementia.
For a year or so she has suffered with some memory loss, calls people different family member names, gets peoples ages wrong like for instance saying someone is 102 when they are in ther 80's. Also for the past 6 months she has got really nasty verbally towards my grandad, they live on their own and he gets really upset. I know she wont go to the doctors if i mentioned about the aggression and i am really concerned as to what i can do. I have tried to explain a bit to my grandad and that he shouldn't take it too personal but he justs shrugs it off.
Any advice appreciated
