someone told me the difference between a forgetful moment, is later on you remember.
Dementia people do not recall. a simple answer but it did help me. Right now I'm sitting in hospice with my dad on his last journey.

I don't know how much information you would like to hear. Please ask if you want more. I believe the more informed we are the better choices we are able to make.
