Hi Anon,
I'm sorry to hear about your mother's passing.
Occasional forgetfulness is common and is not generally associated with dementia or Alzheimer's. However, given your family history, I can see why you would be concerned. Please take a few minutes to read through our Alzheimer's advocacy sheet https://www.empowher.com/alzheimer039s-disease/content/alzheimers-disease-advocacy-sheet-0
There are some tests you could ask your doctor for and you'll find that information in the link above.
Best of luck!
