Are you sure she is fit to fly? How bad is the Alzheimer's? I would consult with your physician before you make the flight.
She has stage 3 of alzheimers. She is fit to fly.
I have never met her physician. H e is in Sweden where she lives.
And so far she has not giving her permition to talk to him.
I am just trying to find out how TSA would treat her. If they would give her a hard time.
I want to find out as much as I possible can before it comes down to a decision about her care.
Thank you.
