We believe my mom is in early/mid stage of dementia/ALZ. She is still living alone, can easily perform all of her ADLs, and most of her IADLs (we handle finances and transportation). But lately she has been occasionally experiencing some troubling symptoms that I always thought came much later. For example, she says she sometimes forgets how my brother is related to her. And has one time asked to be taken home when she already was home.
Does this make sense? What could be going on?
Best of luck to you.
