I won’t alter details for the sake of accuracy.
My mum is bedbound and has been working towards standing with the help of intensive physiotherapists.
Shes got a whole host of things health wise that work against her.
lately we have noticed a couple of times where she’s said something that sounds a bit confused or a false memory or just not quite right. But they are minor. No infections present although these can have that effect. We’ve been reading about signs and symptoms of dementia and most I can find talk about not being able to remember the way somewhere or what day it is or things like that. Obviously being bedbound and not making any plans as such mean yes, she may forget which day it is on occasion. I am asking what possible signs there could be for a lady (71) that is stuck in bed all the time that may indicate a problem with memory or confusion or that point to dementia. A lot of things I am reading cannot be applied to her. Thankyou
