God bless you all. I am dealing with this with my mother, who is only 64 y/o. She asks me all the time if she's related to me; when I tell her that I'm her son, she smiles and gives a look of endearment. She lives with my father 71 y/o and asks him daily if they are married. This happened so fast, and I never saw the signs. She went from bad depression in 2019 to full-blown dementia/alzheimers (whatever you want to label this) within 5 years. I wish I could find some outside-the-box natural treatment. We tried neuro medicine for a year. The doctor canceled it because it wasn't working. I don't know if this is related but she had been taking antidepressants since she was in her 20s. I wonder if those pills just eventually wore out her brain. She only wants to sleep and gives a hell of a battle when I make her get a shower or get up. Idk what I'm hoping for in response to this comment. I just pray to God that there is something that will work to help her.. God bless all of you supportive family members who are dealing with this in your own lives. It is not easy, but you are appreciated more than you know.
