MiL has just been diagnosed with a combo of Vascular Dementia and Alzheimer's. Apparently she scored 60/100 in the test they do. Suggestion is that drugs are not available due to medication she has for epilepsy.

Anyone who might be able to provide some experience, prognosis etc?

Unfortunately, dementia and Alzheimer's are not treated in any way. Therefore you need to buy at least some drugs that will slow down the development of these diseases. Still, you already need to understand that you can lose this person within a few years. I am already 50 years old, and my grandfather died of Alzheimer's. Therefore I do a dementia test every week to check my memory because if you notice that you have memory lapses, then these signals may already be developing either dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
