I know someone who may have Alzheimers. She's in her early 60s. She forgets simple tasks that she's been doing for years. She's easily agitated and overreacts to any type of stress. I don't mean an occasional brain f()rt or a bad day. I mean crying at work because she couldn't fill out a simple requisition form even though she's filled out many of them over the years. This has been getting increasingly worse for the last few years. She's going to lose her job because she can't do her job anymore.
This woman is the sole care giver for her nearly 90 year old mother. I don't think she's capable of caring for her mother any more. Without a job I don't know what's going to happen to them. They have no other relatives. Is there a way I could anonymously report her to DHS or something so that someone with authority will look at the situation? I hate to think of two helpless old ladies but I'm not a relative and have no standing in this matter.
