Hi everyone,
I'm new to all this so you might have to bear with me a bit!
My mother in law has just been diagnosed with early Alzheimers and I am looking for a little bit of help with understanding one of her symptoms.
She is making up the MOST AMAZING FANTASTIC stories in the whole, wide world! Things that are so incredible, they nearly have to be true and they have you going for a while before you shake your head and think to yourself - no, no, that's just another of her incredible stories!
She is 83 years old and i'm wondering what sort of prognosis we can expect? As her daughter-in-law, I don't travel to the hospital with my mother-in-law, as I have 4 very young kids, the youngest of whom is 8 months, so I only get everything 2nd hand from either of her 2 daughters who are in 'the know'!
Anyway, hope this isn't too rambling and looking forward to hearing from anyone.
Thanks
kate
