Hello:
I am a dementia patient. I was on the fence myself fo a wfhile. I prayed about and ou of the blue I got a call from my Neurology team at Mayo telling me I can now get the vaccine I took that as my sign to get it - especially since i was below th age they were regularly giving the vaccine to (under 60 at the time).

With that said - everyone is different. With her age and other potential underlying issues getting the opinion of a doc is very important.
So - the doc wont even talk to you over the phone about it?
Maybe talk to one of her other docs (if she has other specialists?

Hope you can get the answer that gives you the reassurance about getting the vaccine.

Peace
Larry H
