Ross. Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 A close relative has recently been diagnosed with Vascular Dementia. At what stage am I best asking for a loan of a large sum of money in the hope that they remember to give said cash but then forget to ask for it back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he's already 4 years older than the average for the West of Scotland, so I'd rate that as an unlikely target. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can take all the money whenever you like and sell his house. He'll be none the wiser. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side, I can ask for some money and if the answer is positive, ask again 15 minutes later. And again. And again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's strange how with all our miracle medicines that simple stuff like talking about football or musical memories can help bring a bit of clarity back to people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
