I hope your sister doesn't have that either...gosh, I give up trying to figure what my husband's problem is...I always thought it was a midlife crisis but I think it's been tooooo long lol he says some strange things lol to the point people told me they think he's Bi polar, maybe he had mini strokes or has brain tumor lol I just think it's old age, he's a negative grump lol You're brave to do research and look things up, I would be afraid to read something that may be happening or get myself into looking up every little problem I have myself lol That's wonderful, you started the first Caregiver support group ! hugs Linda [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) writes:
I just wonder if she knows this is happening. I would think that she would, but my mom had Lewy Body Dementia. The cognition fluctuates and things can go from normal to abnormal at the snap of a finger. The right frontal lobe is what is affected that makes people be able to know right and wrong. Maybe I should read up. That would be weird if it was somehow related… but no one in my family (except me) want to know what Lewy Body Dementia really is. I have started the first caregiver support group in Nevada and hope to help caregivers, as I did not have that support. I have a friend that has it, and she said when she gets upset about something (stress) that causes a Lewy episode, that she cannot control what she says and how she says it, and it is like she is watching herself do things that she wouldn’t and she has not control to stop it. Funny, I never thought of a possible connection until right now. I hope she doesn’t have that.

I really don't talk to him unless I absolutely have to :) like where did my car keys go ? lol hugs Linda [email protected] writes: She has double personality…very sweet to others. When we were younger, everyone loved her…sweet girl. At home…different. Maybe it goes back to when she was a teenager? I wonder if double personality is a precursor to bi-polar.
