In last 2 weeks, a pork tenderloin disappeared from the fridge...as well as a carton of heavy cream, and a jar of caramel sauce. I know it sounds kind of funny but its very disturbing. Could this be related to dementia...My LO has no recollection of any thing. Thanks.

Thank you so much, we are just beginning this road. He is still eating and taking care of himself but these mising items have really blown me away. He is also starting to buy duplicates of shaving cream, mouthwash, tooth brushes, etc, Which I believe are also a sign of dementia.

Yes! And they all end up in her bedroom! I have to go in once a week and “clean house” also if we set anything on the common table it will be gone. We cannot count on ever seeing it again . Until many months later at 11:00 at night holding it up in the air …”is this yours?” It’s enough to want to pull your hair right out of your head.

Well yes. I found the English muffins under a desk. Took a while to find my husband’s dinner which he took to another room. Mostly non perishable things disappear- meat mallet, spatula, jackets, slippers etc. etc. definitely dementia. What is lost May return to you in odd places.
