One of the first things we noticed when Mrs B's mother's Alzheimers started was an inability to learn new things. After a nightmare where she was hours late arriving with us from her home in the Potteries, she'd got lost round Birmingham (with hindsight a red light incident on its own as she'd been born there), we bought her a simple mobile phone. She'd simply no concept of what it was or however many times we explained, how to use it. A repeat of our experience 6 months earlier trying to get her to use email on the computer we gave her for her 70th birthday.
