Dear user
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
I went through your details. Please provide your wife's age. Memory problems (particularly remembering recent events), reduced concentration, increased confusion, loss of ability to do everyday tasks, apathy and withdrawal or depression, noted personality and behavior changes are the primary or early signs of dementia. Difficulty finding the right words while speaking is considered as primary. Still, expert diagnosis is essential. Do consult a neurologist for further information and treatment.
