Dementia or delirium?

My 82 year old dad swears my mother is running around on him, he says he's done with her doing him this way. Don't know where this is coming from. He has wanted to pull all of their money from the bank and hide it.

KjeanC, sounds more like dementia than delirium. It is so sad when a spouse is making claims against their love one, but this is somewhat common.

I found this article here on Aging Care that may be helpful: https://www.agingcare.com/articles/How-to-handle-alzheimers-disease-lying-144204.htm and it has over 160 comments.
