Yes very much like my wife at 66 now was diagnosed about 4.5 years ago with Fronremperal Dementia. She will want to watch the same movie we just saw a week or two ago. She does giving driving directions in towns she grew up in but can't remember the name of a store we were at yesterday. Doesn't remember what Menards is without a lot of explanation. Does well washing dishes and clothes by herself but does not cook hardly anymore and always wants to go out to eat. Always needs help ordering because she can't remember what anything is. Always reminds that she wants a diet soda. It's so sad dhe her this way. Always says she will not go to a care facility because I can care for her instead. It's getting more difficult each day but I keep trying. I kniw I shouldn't but sometimes I get so frustrated I raise my voice at her and feel bad later.its just so hard to figure out how she can remember some things vividly and has no clue what to ask for. But members so many things from her past. She was Scammed 6 months for $2500 worth of gift cards which we lost most of. Fortunately i caught her writing a check for $7000 and realized it before she sent it to an address with no persons name in Maryland. I was able to save a small persent of the $2500 she had already sent pictures of the cards my email and scammer sold or used them in several different states. Be careful with that type of thing. The bank closed her account and had to change to my credit union where I as conservator have to ok any transactions or checks. It's terrible that there are crooks out there that would do this to old and sick people. So all beware!!

It is horrible that there are people out there willing to take advantage of anyone they can. I’m so sorry this happened to you and your wife.
