my Uncle has had Dementia hit pretty badly recently. he was pulled over in Cullman AL driving the wrong way on the interstate. when he was asked where he was going, he said he was going to Publix for a prescription.
he lives in Mobile and had no idea he was in Cullman - for those that do not know, that is about 5 hours north of Mobile.
we had no idea it was that bad (he has always been a tad off) but that was eye opening at how quickly it can it can set in. he is also super belligerent too.
he will likely be committed to an assisted living center specializing in Dementia. scary that he and my dad has it, and their mom had Alzheimer's.
makes me fearful for myself in the future.
