Poppy has a mild case of dementia. That combined with his mini-strokes has led to a slight decline in some of his mental faculties. On some subjects, he is still as sharp as he ever was. On others, it just depends on the day.
He hasn't been able to walk unassisted now in quite some time, and the family uses a wheelchair when they take him out for a visit or a drive.
A little while back, Auntie Anne showed him a group shot of the family from Ellen's wedding last summer, and his response was, "What the hell was I doing in a wheelchair?"
