(34,661 posts)that have or had Dementia when they past. No two had the same symptoms exactly. And the remaining member is in a locked facility for his own saftey. Watched how my Mother In Law suffered for several years. Watched my own Mother as well as her Parents and how they both suffered and not understanding what was happening. Only to find the truth later .
In all these cases,it started out unnoticed symptoms but later the stumbling and the motor-skills sounded our alarm bells. In all but one case someone was near by when they fell or needed some type of emergency care until it was necessary to be entered into 24/7 Nursing care.
When watching Trump,my Spouse and I see all the things we could document with all our Family Members whom were diagnosed with Dementia.. But Trump appears to have a hell of a lot more going on. Just a experienced guess.
