Taping things together with band aids. Pulling out boxes, failing at projects
Loved one is taping things together. He collected a bunch of ink pens and fully taped them with electrical tape from near tops to near tips. Also things like pamphlets he rolls up as well. When he ran out of tape, he began using band aids. He has put bandaids around the connection point between his razor handles and the part that holds the razor on a disposable razor. When asked, his only reasoning was that the band aids were the only adhesive product he could think of that was waterproof. Stated he realizes his brain wasn’t working right after the fact.
He has also unplugged their internet and I am not sure I can get it reconfigured to the modem. Do you think this is Dimentia? Lack of blood flow to the brain? In recent months, He has also busied himself messing with plugs, toilets, bathtub, dryer, and m essed each one of these projects up pretty bad.
He was always intelligent and technologically proficient as a licensed design professional. Not sure what to make of these new occurrences as they seem lacking in logic or reason. Wondering if there are other mental(or physical) processes and at work or “No… it’s just dementia?” Diagnosis from medical professionals has went from Alzheimer’s to more recently be more certain of parkinson’s or at least parkinson’s like symptoms.
