Onset was not last week…he’s in a definite medical crisis. If he came into my office I’d send him right to the ER if he hadn’t already been in treatment. I think he’s had FTD for a long time now, it’s worsening rapidly.

That’s my considered opinion as someone who has worked with this geriatric population for nearly 50 years and in addition, watched my father go through the heart failure and concomitant kidney failure.
