As said, they have no idea they have Dementia. I would think by the time you get to court you have proven that Dementia has been diagnosed and a doctor has signed off that the person needs 24/7 care and supervision. The judge should go by the findings of tests and doctors, not the person suffering from Dementia.
Most People who have Dementia have No clue . My Father at One Point said " I Know I have something wrong with me But I Know that there Is No Cure . " I Never said to him " Dad You Have Dementia . " Instead I got Literature form Harvard Medical school and Tufts with medical articles and Brought him Puzzles to work On .
