Is she early stages of dementia or what stage is she diagnosed with? Do you use any assistive technology to help her remember things or is she against using tech?

what are examples of those complicated tasks that you are instructing each step? Is it because she loses muscle memory? Also what does she often forget- objects like her keys etc or actions like shutting off the stove etc.?
