Hi girls,
Not sure If anyone remembers my post a few weeks back about the MIL but she's acting extremely odd.
My family and I met OH and his mother for lunch last week, well I say we met her but she was late so in theory she met us.
Anyway, we arranged to meet at 12.30- OH came to collect my family and I at 12 and called his mum to tell her we'd see her at 12.30 to which she replied "I'm walking up there now".
We get into the restaurant and she's not there- 20 mins pass by, still no sign.OH calls her 4 times, no answer....
EVENTUALLY she wanders in, her hair had been scalped,she had the lot chopped off (totally out of charecter)
So we're sat there talking and she doesnt appear to be with it and is saying things that to me, made no sense.
She paid hardly any attention to my son and if truth is known I dont think she knew who he was.
On one occasion my son was hanging over the chair that she was sitting on, about ready to fall flat on his head and MIL didnt even notice.
Since then she has got on wrong buses, fallen over randomly, attempted to help make dinner and dropped it all over the floor- she doesn't seem to know who she's talking to when we call her and doesnt even manage to say "bye" after the conversation; she just hangs up.
Also, her family have been contacting OH's sister saying how they're "concerned" about her and have suggested she is a burden.
She was NEVER like this before and all her blood tests have come back clear.
OH received a call last night from his aunt suggesting he should go and psend christmas with his mum and family as it may be her last.
Nobody knows whats the matter with her.. we cant understand it.
She also went to some sort of craft fayre, tried to buy some bits and bobs and was not able to coount the money, as tho it was foreign currency or something.
What does this sound like?
I said dementia but OH said no...
