What happens now? MIL failed a cognition test.
My MIL 74 lives with my husband (50) and I (50). She told me that she failed two cognition tests at her last dr’s appt and that the doctor told her she needed to have some conversations with her family. However when she sat my husband and his sister down and talked, all she told them was she needed to decide whether to start a GLP1 or not. I later told them what she told me. She still goes to her own appts, helps with dishes, laundry, and dusting. Should I be concerned or just wait for problems to arise? Also she is sleeping less and less at night and sitting more and more in her chair. We bought her a member ship at a very nice senior rec center but she only went one time. She has less and less interest in doing anything outside the home unless my husband or I take her. I guess there have been other signs, like she tells me the same stories over and over, but I just assumed she liked to listen to herself talk. I never tell her she has already told that story, so I don’t know if she forgotten or just likes telling the story.
