Update on Dotty

Bob DeMarco from Alzheimer’s Reading Room writes an update on his mother, Dotty’s, condition.

She is talking and asking a lot of questions. Most of her sentences are still starting with the word, Bobby.

It is hard for me to say she is getting better. She is definitely much improved versus last Friday and Saturday. On the other hand, she is much worse then last Monday, May 17.
Keep in mind on May 10, she was "there". Now, "not there".

On May 10, she was able to walk around the clinical trial office, see the neurologist, move from room to room, and took a serious of tests that included verbal interviews. She walked from the parking lot and into the doctor's office while I held her hand. She walking into and out of the doctor's office that day.

Compare this to last Thursday and Friday when I had to use a wheelchair to get her to the doctor and home.
What a difference two weeks has made. Dotty has never acted like this before. Not even close. By the way, she is not acting mean.

I believe she does know there is something wrong and knows that she is not feeling well.

We head back to the doctor's office this afternoon.
