It is looking very much like my FIL has dementia. He's 69 a retired university lecturer in Biochemistry so a clever bloke and seems to be very rapidly going downhill. It's so sad, have just got back from a weekend with them and he's so much worse than last time we saw him which was only a couple of weeks ago. He took ages to remember my daughter's name and I worry about the time he won't recognise us

He has an MRI scan this week and he's petrified about what it's going to show up.
