Mary has dementia and suddenly out of the blue is so completely negative. Everything is a complaint. Just on and on about the food.

It's non stop about the food alone for hours. Is this normal? She's 70 not 90. Everything is my mother, I miss my mom. I know, but she was 90. She should have lived till 100. Other people live till 100. Everything I say gets shot down and stomped on. She said she hated the flowers, but I caught her smelling them and smiling. I think she knows she's being really negative.

lemonsquish, time for Mary to be tested for an Urinary Tract Infection. Any out of the blue changes in personality can show up as a symptom with this infection. Mary's primary doctor or even urgent care can conduct the test. Even the assisted living depending if they have a lab on site.

I would have her tested for a UTI but she just may be going into the next stage of her Dementia. Call her doctor and see if there is a medication that will help.
