Dear Abby: My mother-in-law is starting to fail mentally, and starting to have falls, yet her family won't admit it. Advice?
She still drives and has recently had several fender benders. She also admitted to getting lost on her way home from the store and needing to call her brother to find her. A fall resulted in a broken wrist. She thinks this is funny and isn’t worried at all. She won’t disclose anything about her health care, so we can’t talk to her doctor.
Additionally, it sounds like your MIL is not the only one having difficulty accepting her diminished condition. Continue talking to your husband and encouraging action before there is a crisis. The decline you describe could be early warning signs of dementia or other cognitive decline, which may grow worse.
