Vascular Dementia

[Redhelen72]

MIL has been diagnosed with Vascular Dementia.

The advisor rang us yesterday to let us know and talk through the diagnosis, apparently social services will get a referral and will visit her to see what help will be needed.

As apparently she will need a lot of help. Does anyone know if this help is means tested and if it can be refused?

Thank you

Red, we had the same problem with one of Mr Ls sisters, but funnily enough she suddenly became more interested in her mother when she was dying.   

(She had a shock though when she didn't know what we knew.  Her mother died in debt.  She had been conned into taking out a huge equity loan on her property and given away money to the orthodox church.  Property prices fell and we handed her properyt back to the Building Society.)
