How Can Severe Memory Loss Be Treated?
My 90 year old father is unable to remember yesterday, what activities, what 2+2 = s. He has a young girlfriend and giving away money and items, they are his to do what he wishes, but he doesn t remember paying her Mother s debt. He has shown this person the underslab vaults, etc. He will not listen to us any longer about anything, like going to his doctor s appointment. We do not understand how he cares for her. That he knows she would never do anything wrong. Then any conversation stops. I do not any agency is on our side. The USA government to say is the big one that will not help. I am frightened. Sandi
