My mother had dementia that started when she was 79 years old. She died at age 82. She fooled us a lot early on when we visited her. Maybe we wanted to believe she was OK, so we never asked her questions. She would smile and use her charm when we visited her. Hi, I am so glad to see you. How have you been? She would never address my wife, grand children or me by name.  She had some better days but 3 things were here her tell.
1. She would just smile when asked a question. Biden does that a lot.
2. She had major balance issues and at times shuffled her feet when walking.
3. She had major memory issues. My brother was retired so he visited her almost everyday. He communicated with us when he visited how she was doing. Within minutes of my visit with Mom, she would ask me how he was doing. Then she would say he had not come and visited her a long time. I knew he was just there the previous 3 days.

Biden has all of these traits. Lately, it appears he is digressing. Doing short interviews and then shuffling off before interview is over. He says Beau died in the Iraq war, we know he died of cancer. He ended a briefing with "God Save the Queen" and the queen is dead. Are the gaffes or a major medical issue?

I am not trying to be cruel, but based on my experience with my mother, he has many symptoms of dementia. I may be wrong, but I may be correct. If so, it is cruel for Democrats to parade him in front of the world as his mind deteriorates right in front of eyes.

Above is a reference to look at.

Sorry about your mother.

My wife's grandmother also had dementia late in life.  It lingered for a decade and she had none of the above symptoms until the last year.  She did have increasing paranoia where she always thought everyone was stealing from her and irrational anger towards people she thought did "something" she didn't like even if she didn't know what it was.  It's why she moved from PA back to her home state.  Years later she became very nice to everyone because, in her words, "she forgot why she was mad at them".  It was another three years after that before she passed away.
