Well, it happened. 1poormom didn't recognize my voice over the phone until I told her who I was. She still remembered me once I told her. Her decline has been rapid over the past two or three years. Apparently she doesn't remember being moved into memory care. The facility lays out the rooms identically, and tell me it's not uncommon for residents not to realize they've been moved, or to forget shorting after it happens.

They try to keep her engaged, but she's resistant to socializing. Which doesn't help. Socializing forces the brain to work harder, and appears to slow the progress of dementia. At least she still reads her newspaper.
