WIBTAH If I pointed out my MILs potential dementia symptoms to the rest of her family
I (28f) have been married for 3 years, together for 8.
Lately Ive been concerned over my MIL (66f) and her "forgetfulness". It started out as simple things like making another tea because she forgot she already did or adding extra butter because she couldnt recall if she put it into the recipe or not. Just small things that seem easier to forget..however it seems to have escalated in the last 3-4 months.
She has done the following things multiple times now
-turned the oven off when it beeps and forgotten that there was food inside for hours or even days.
- Claimed that she has had important phone calls with myself or my husband but we never heard a word from her.
- used very out of date dairy products because she "just bought them yesterday"
This past week she had a forgetful incident that warranted my concerns even more.
At dinner with the family she turned to her daughter (32) and asked if she had seen the photos from her + FILs recent trip to Texas. The daughter that she spoke to is the one that took the photos..they were there to visit her and her bf at their new house.
I tried to bring it up to my husband and he just brushed it off as "oh mom is always forgetful"
Obviously I am only seeing snippets of her day to day, but the parts that Im seeing are major red flags .
So WIBTAH if I brought up my concerns again to my husband and the rest of his family?
