A member asked:

Grandma has more memory loss by the day, mainly when rushed. should we let he set her own pace at 90?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Graceful Aging: Generally people will have memory loss as they age. Being sensitive to each person's condition and trying to accomodate them is a good practice. You may also consider seeing a professional to rule out dementia. Memory loss can be slow and progressive or sharp and severe. Different underlying causes impact people's memory.
